AVID:Site Staff/Bureaucrats

Bureaucrats are users with advanced permissions beyond that of a typical administrator. They have the ability to add or revoke administrative tools and access to wiki configuration options via Special:ManageWiki.

Scope
The role of bureaucrats are as follows:


 * Determine consensus on RFCs and forum posts pertaining to wiki decisions
 * Decide and carry out the outcome of requests at Requests for Adminship and Requests for Rollback.
 * Remove the admin rights of any user determined by the community to be unfit to have such tools.

Election
Users can request bureaucrat rights at Requests for Adminship subject to the edit requirements denoted there. Requests for bureaucrat rights will remain open for 7 days and those applying must have an 80% support ratio.

Revocation
Bureaucrat rights can be revoked if a request of no confidence is opened and more than 50% of the vote is in favor of removal. They will also be removed if the user's adminship is removed at any time either by community vote or voluntary resignation.
