Like this wiki, everyone needs to keep the system balanced. With all these users and admins, we can keep this wiki, safe, strong, and a fun place. I usually like to be the “backbone.” To help people with what they need if no one else can help.

If they did something wrong, I will them them what they did wrong. If there is a conflict between two or more users, I will listen to what each user has to say.

If there is any trouble, they are there to help. Administrators know what is right and not right, they help to make sure rules on the wiki are followed.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">2. How often do you come on wikia?

Would you be willing to make any sacrifices for the Wikia?

What ideas do you have for the wiki? What skills of yours would you use as an admin and how would you use them?

If someone did something wrong in chat, we could notify them. I would use my skills to make a template for this, as I know how to make certain templates.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">5. What do you believe are the three most important qualities of an administrator? <p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">6.What key principles do you think are important when resolving conflicts between users?
 * <p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Knowing when an action violates a rule or not, if it does, then the user should be given a warning.
 * <p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Monioring experience, When some thing on a page does not seem right, then the admin should delete it. Such as an unnecessary page or image.
 * <p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Activity: Admins need to be active to achieve their duties.

What it is and how to solve it.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">2: Who is involved, If we know who is involved, we can see what each has to argue.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">3: How to solve it, we must settle it peacefully. If we settle it the right way. There will be no more conflict.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">7. What would you do if you feel that another member of the administrative team is not living up to the principles outlined in our policies and your prior responses?

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">I would let you know, but I would not give them a notice, as that is bureaucrat job.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">8. What priorities of yours, if any, would change as a result of becoming an admin? How would those changes translate into your editing activities?

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">I will try to speak a little more with punctuation. If you are an admin, you must speak and act like admin material.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">9. What do you think you would struggle with most if you became a new admin and how would you try to defeat that struggle?

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">I would have a hard time finding if a category is necessary or not. I would ask you or other admins, or read the policies multiple times.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"><span style="font-size:14px;font-family:'TrebuchetMS';color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">10. Why would you like to be an admin?
