Administrators of Bulbapedia are users who have been granted certain permissions by the Editorial Board. An administrator's responsibilities number greatly, being able to protect pages both from creation and editing, delete pages from view, block and unblock users, check a user's IP address, and put Bulbapedia into staff-only lockdown, among others.

The lowest of the "true" ranks of Bulbapedia staff, Administrators are held to strict scrutiny by the Editorial Board, and may be granted their powers through moving up from the Junior Administrator rank.

List of Administrators

This is a list of all users with Administrator powers on Bulbapedia. This list does not include users higher on the Bulbapedia administrative hierarchy, who all have the powers of the administrator level in addition to their own.

If in need of a Administrator's assistance, please contact an Active Administrator for quickest results; all active Administrators generally check messages daily. For immediate results, find a currently online admin on the list of recent changes—administrators have italicized usernames.

If an active Administrator cannot be found, consider speaking with a Senior Administrator, Bureaucrat, or a member of the Editorial Board.

Authority

Administrators have the authority to lock and unlock pages from editing by ordinary users as well as from users who have not yet been around long enough to be Autoconfirmed.

Additionally, Administrators have the power to delete and undelete pages and files on Bulbapedia and the Archives, as well as upload files via URL. Administrators may block and unblock other users in accordance with policy.
