Help:User access levels

Based on Wikia:Help:User access levels

Unregistered users are scum.

Different users have access to different functions of the site. While anyone can view articles on Uncyclopedia, there are certain technical restrictions imposed at each level of the user hierarchy.

Anyone

Unfortunately, some unregistered users are shameless vanity whores.

Unregistered users (commonly referred to as IPs, or soulless vanity whores), have the ability to:

• Shit themselves laughing at any of the material here on Uncyclopedia
• Edit unprotected pages
• Create an account (thus providing them with a soul)

Logged-in users

Automated list: Special:Listusers

After creating an account and being delivered a courteous yet impersonal welcome, logged-in users can:

• Upload images
• Maintain a watchlist
• Customise how they see Uncyclopedia using Special:Preferences.

Creating an account is free, and only requires a username and password (but we still recommend you donate, or the site will eventually be forced by Jimbo Wales to make you pay for membership).

Autoconfirmed users

Logged-in users who have managed not to get banned are given the 'autoconfirmed' user right after four days. These users can move pages, do c@ptcha triggering actions without having to go through the c@ptcha, and edit semi-protected pages.

Emailconfirmed users

A user with a confirmed email address can enable email messages from other users, and can request lost passwords in the event of gross stupidity or a hacker accessing their account and changing the password thus immediately preventing them using it.

Rollbackers

Users in the Rollback group have the ability to automatically revert vandalism edits back to the most recent non-vandalized version. Revisions can only be manually undone one at a time, but rollback will undo all edits of a single user at once, reverting the page to the last time someone else edited it. Rollback doesn't magically detect vandalism, so it must be used with care in order to avoid accidentally removing legitimate edits.

They can also patrol your edits and have their own edits patrolled automatically, ain't that somethin'?!

Autopatrolled

Normal users that have their edits patrolled automatically.

Administrators

Administrator traits include rage and bitterness.

PMS is a common side affect of adminship.

Main article: Beginner's Guide/Acceptable admins

Automated list: Special:Listusers/sysop

Active Admins: UN:AA

Administrators (also known as Adminses or Sysops) are the glorious shit waders of Uncyclopedia. They are the ones who keep us safe from vomit-inducing content and irritating fools.

Administrators can:

• Ban you, if you disrupt the site, they are displeased with you, or if they are bored (true!)
• Unban you, if feeling merciful, or if you have bitched to another admin about "abuse"
• Huff (delete) pages that are embarrassing, unfunny, or compromise national security
• Hack up pages that may have been wrongfully huffed by a fellow admin suffering from PMS
• Restrict editing or moving of a page to autoconfirmed users or other administrators
• Quickly revert vandalism and other dickery using [rollback]
• Edit pages in the MediaWiki namespace, which affect how the site is displayed.

Bureaucrats

Main article: Uncyclopedia:Bureaucrats

Automated list: Special:Listusers/bureaucrat

Active Bureaucrats: N/A

Bureaucrats are administrators with the ability to:

• Spawn administrators and bureaucrats using Special:Makesysop
• Grant users real rollback rights, if they were so inclined (only on editors who have been here for a minimum of one month).

Staff

Wikia, Inc. corporate office.

Main article: Wikia:Wikia Staff

Automated list: Special:Listusers/staff

Fire breathing monsters with the ability to destroy the world Uncyclopedia, Wikia Staff are lazy, apathetic, and vengeful friendly, kind users who are here to help.

In a large community with many active administrators such as Uncyclopedia, Staff don't often have much to do. Don't do a thing to change this.

The abilities of staff are not widely known, but Mongolian spies have determined that staff can:

• Block, protect, and delete; just like administrators
• Spawn administrators, bureaucrats, janitors and staffers (don't bother asking, you'll get banned)
• Remove these rights when bored or feeling vengeful
• Lock the database (preventing editing or log entries)
• View the IP used by any user
• Track cross-wiki vandals and spammers and burn them down with a single huff
• Remove embarrassing family secrets personal information from pages
• Rename you to shithead, or perhaps some other name if you ask nicely.
