Stewards are volunteers trusted with the ability to manage SkyWiki's day to day operations. | |||

Stewards | Stewards may either nominate themselves or be nominated by others by submitting a request at '''[[Request for permissions]]'''. To be approved, a request must meet the following criteria: | ||

* Receive votes from at least '''five users''' | |||

# '''Resignation''': A steward in good standing may request their permissions back without an RfP if they resigned within the past 12 hours. | |||
== Role of Stewards == | |||
Stewards collaborate with wiki communities to address local issues, such as disputes and abusive or disruptive behavior. They may assign permissions to themselves or other users as needed to support the community. Additionally, they can exercise administrator functions, including blocking, deleting, and protecting pages. | |||
Beyond local responsibilities, stewards oversee global SkyWiki-wide matters, including handling cross-wiki disruptions, assigning global groups, locking accounts, and renaming users. | |||
Stewards are the only users authorized to serve as '''[[CheckUser]]''' and '''[[Suppressor]]''' on a SkyWiki-wide basis. Most wikis do not have locally elected CheckUsers or Suppressors. | |||
