| - In order to keep peace throughout the wiki, there is now a policy for administrators. New rules in this page will be added, changed or removed by bureaucrats as considered necessary. Failure to follow these rules may result in loss of adminship privileges or even a block. 1.
* Remember to treat all members with respect. If you are giving someone a warning or blocking them, inform them in an orderly manner and don't swear at them. 2.
* Just because a page has poor grammar or bad formatting, doesn't mean you should delete it. The cleanup tag and the rewrite tag are there for a reason. 3.
* If an editor makes an unhelpful edit, it is usually not acceptable to go straight to blocking them. Give them a few warnings first. In general, minor issues deserve a {{Uw-1}} template, while problematic behaviour deserves a {{Uw-2}} template and serious offenses deserve a {{Uw-3}} template. If repeated, the level of warning may be increased. If they are still repeating the offense after giving them a {{Uw-3}} template, you may block them. However, extreme offenses such as holding an inappropriate username or sockpuppeting to avoid a block can be blocked immediately without warning. 1.
* If blocking someone, remember to follow the blocking policy. Also, usually, you should place {{Block}} on their talk page once you have blocked them. 1.
* As for locking pages, you should never lock a page from editing by non-admins the first time it has been vandalised (except for your own user page and official policy pages). However, if it has been vandalised multiple times, you may lock it from editing by non-admins.
