Fanon Administrator Group
It seems I always forget to mention something when I contact you, I truly am sorry for that. I do, however, have something important, and it will be needed in order to run the Fanon portal smoothly. Let me start off by saying that the three Administrators of this wiki, which includes myself, are extremely busy deleting vandalism and warning vandals. This is the key problem concerning the wiki. We also have other tasks, and we do not want to be further constricted with duties of an Administrator of the Fanon namespace.

So here's what I think can be done. I have created a group called "Fanon Administrator" on the wiki (see the MediaWiki article)(and the group member MediaWiki article). Although the group now exists, anyone who is apppointed Fanon Administrator will be able to do less than an ordinary user, according to the ListGroupRights article. What I propose is, is there a way to specifically state the rights of a Fanon Administrator, and factor them into the user group in such a way that they apply to a user who is added to the group? Could this be done by editing the ListGroupRights article, or another article that is the way of adding additional rights? If this can be done, please add the following rights to the Fanon Administrator category. (And note, I copied this from the Administrator category on the ListGroupRights article and deducted a few categories that make a Fanon Admin different from an ordinary Admin. And... if you aren't sure how to do this... could you direct me to someone who does?) --  Annawantimes   (Talk)  21:48, October 31, 2011 (UTC)
