System administrators are people who perform systems administration work on the WickedGov servers. These people have complete access to all wikis through backend access to the servers. They can also be added to the sysadmin
global group upon request. This way, they can perform some of their actions on-wiki for maximum transparency.
Ultimately, the WickedGov office determines who has system administrator access.
System administrator actions[edit | edit source]
System administrators may occasionally need to perform actions for technical reasons, such as blocking users or bots that are consuming unacceptable amounts of system resources, or undoing edits that put heavy strain on the servers. These actions are clearly marked. Such actions should not be undone without consulting the system administrator.
Generally, most day-to-day actions requiring restricted access are handled by the Stewards instead of the system administrators.
