Administrators on the X-Files Wiki are no different than regular users. They possess extra responsibility in order to mediate disputes between users, block vandals, and work on the basic framework of the site (the "MediaWiki" pages). See the Central Wikicity for more information.

There is a special page (Special:Listadmins) which lists all of the current administrators, however most of them are inactive Wikicities developers. There are currently two active administrators. Mulder founded this site in July 2005, and as such also has bureaucrat status. This means that he has the ability to make other users into administrators. Tim Thomason is the other administrator. He received admin status in November 2005.

If you would like to request administratorship, please do so on Mulder's talk page. It is expected that a prospective administrator has made hundreds of edits and has been a user for months. The prospective administrator should also be a well-respected user by other editors and should follow policy. In the future, a nomination feature will appear on this page.
