Administrators, or sysops (short for systems operators), are a group of users who have some technical permissions not automatically granted to all accounts. You can find a list of users with administrator rights for MEpedia at Special:ListUsers/sysop.

Some administrator permissions include the ability to delete a page, block a disruptive user if circumstances require, or edit certain pages that are protected for vandalism reasons, like the main page or the whitelist for the CAPTCHA.

Contacting an administrator

Shortcut:
  • Help:Contact an administrator

If you need input or assistance that requires an administrator, you can choose an administrator from the list of administrators at Special:ListUsers/sysop, and then make sure that your chosen administrator is still active by consulting the list of active users at Special:ActiveUsers. Finally, leave a message on that administrator's discussion page.
