Bloons Conception Wiki:Staff

Greetings conceptors! Here, you can find a list of current staff members to contact, as well as details on staff positions and instructions on how to become part of the staff yourself!

Current Staff
We are still restructuring our current staff system, sorry for the inconvenience.

Staff Positions
Staff positions are split among 3 Departments (the Content Department, the Police Department, and the Administrative Department) and 4 Classes (Employee Class, Moderator Class, Administrator Class, and Leadership). These positions will be sorted by classes here, with their respective Department given in parentheses.

Employee-Class Positions
In order to apply for any Employee-Class Position, you'll first need to meet the following criteria:


 * Have been an active member for at least one month.
 * Have not gotten any official warning in the last two weeks.
 * Have at least 50 edits.
 * Have a Portfolio detailing your strengths and weaknesses. The portfolio should be at least 100 words long, and can be put in your userpage, under a dedicated "Portfolio" section, or in this forum board. The Portfolio must be approved and signed by the Leader, or the Adjudicator afterwards.

After you have met all of the above criteria, you'll receive an Employee Application Ticket (EAT). You can use this EAT to apply for one of the following positions, given you have also completed that position's extra criteria.

Editor (Content Department)
Editors are the workforce of the content department, and are the people who keep this wiki safe from spam and vandalism, as well as ensure the conceptions made here are of the best quality.

Being an Editor, you can:


 * Rollback edits.
 * Give official ratings.
 * Put conceptions into the Conception Gallery.

To become an Editor, you must:


 * Have at least 100 edits
 * Be approved by at least 3 users, while being disapproved by less than 3 users.

Enforcer (Police Department)
Enforcers are the workforce of the police department, and are responsible for moderating users' behaviors and stop harassment around the wiki.

Being an Enforcer, you can:


 * Kick and ban users in both the Wikia chatroom (in the rare occasion it's used) and the Discord chatroom (you'll be given the "Da Police" role along with this position).
 * Manage messages, mute and deafen members, and move users between voice channels in the Discord channel with the Da Police role.
 * Give official warnings (but not block users).

You can use this MAT to apply for one of the following positions **if it matches your Department**, given you have also completed that position's extra criteria.

Encyclopedian (Content Department)
Encyclopedians are the Content Moderators of BCoW. They are highly acclaimed Editors, and thus have been tasked with managing the wikia's media, as well as keeping it clean yet full of content by wisely deleting and undeleting pages.

Inspector (Police Department)
Inspectors are the Discussions Moderators of BCoW. Having done their job excellently as an Enforcer, they are granted the ability of giving order to not only the chatroom, but every aspect of BCoW, and are regarded as the true peacekeepers of BCoW.

Being an Inspector, you can:


 * Do everything an Enforcer can.
 * Remove, restore, close, reopen, highlight, and un-highlight threads in the Forum.
 * Create, remove, and rename forum boards, move threads from one board to another.

 * Have not been banned on any other wikia in the last three months.
 * Have been active on the forum for the last one month.
 * Write an Extended Portfolio detailing why you are fit for the job, and why you are willing to serve BCoW. This Extended Portfolio must also be signed by the Leader or the Adjudicator.

 * Have been actively working as a Manager-Class member of the corresponding Department for at least three months.

 * Have at least 1000 edits.

After you have met all of the above criteria, you'll receive an Administrator Application Ticket (AAT) **with your current Manager Position on it**. You can use this AAT to apply for one of the following positions **if it matches your Department**, given you have also completed that position's extra criteria.

Wikimaker (Content Department)
The Wikimaker is one of the three Conception Masters of BCoW, taking care of everything related to content in the wikia. Whether it be leading Editors and Encyclopedians, or changing the wikia's form and function, this member is in charge of it all!

Being the Wikimaker, you can, and are tasked to:


 * Do everything an Encyclopedian can.
 * Edit the wikia's aesthetic elements, like buttons, headers, color schemes, etc.
 * Make and edit templates, userboxes, username colors, user tags, tickets, and other elements.
 * Program additional features into the wikia upon request.

To become the Wikimaker, you must:

have made a functional website.
 * Have at least 1800 edits.
 * Have rated at least 20 conceptions.
 * Have not uploaded any files that got deleted by an Encyclopedian in the last six months.
 * Have a basic certificate of each of the following coding languages: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, OR
 * Be approved by at least 7 users, while being disapproved by less than 2 users.
 * Win over the current Wikimaker (if any) in the 3-day Popularity Vote, called by the Leader once he/she approves of the application.

Adjudicator (Police Department)
The Adjudicator is one of the three Conception Masters of BCoW. Being the face of the law, this powerful judge is tasked with keeping every user's actions in control!

Being the Adjudicator, you can, and are tasked to:


 * Do everything an Inspector can.
 * Block and unblock conceptors from the wiki.
 * Edit the Policies without the Leader's interference.

To become the Adjudicator, you must:


 * Have been an active member and not gotten any official warning in the last nine months.
 * Have not been banned on any other wikia in the last six months.
 * Have been active on the forum for the last three months.
 * Have at least 16 years of age.
 * Be approved by at least 10 users, while not being disapproved by any user.
 * Win over the current Adjudicator (if any) in the 3-day Popularity Vote.

'''NOTE: Even though each of the Administrator-Class Positions can technically also do what the other position can, it's NOT ADVISED to do so unless urgent help is needed. Abusing rights from the other position can get you filed for fraud, in other words, pretending to be a staff member you are not!'''

Leader (Administrative Department)
This is it! The ultimate position! The last Conception Master! The member with every right (except closing the wikia)! To become the Leader of BCoW, you must:


 * Have been actively working as a Conception Master for at least one month.
 * Have not gotten any official warning in your Conception Master career.

That's it! Meet those two simple criteria, and you'll be fit to be the Leader! However, being fit is one thing, actually becoming one is another. The next part is the interesting part...

You'll need to influence the community enough for them to call a Leader Vote, which lasts for two weeks, or until at least 20 users have voted, whichever is sooner, and may only be called if the current Leader also approves of possibly losing his/her position! After this final Popularity Vote, if you have more votes than the Leader, he/she should happily switch his/her position with yours!
