As Wikipedia gets more developed, the standards for becoming an administrator are getting harder.The steps and expectations on how to become an administrator are here.
Step 1: Decide if you want to become a Wikipedia admin.
Being an admin requires a lot of hard work and dedication.Follow the next step if you say yes.Administrators are responsible for closing discussions, blocking users, rolling back vandals, and other important tasks.Determine if you're ready to be an administrator.It's common to pick one or a few areas and focus on them.You are expected to have experience in a variety of administrative tasks, as you may be called on to do so.
Step 2: Make a lot of good changes to the encyclopedia and be an active member of the site for at least a few years.
Try to use edit summaries when editing.Fights should be edited and avoid controversy.Good and featured articles or expanding stubs can be built in a collaborative and constructive manner.Maintenance tasks include reverting vandals, removing copyrighted material, and participating in deletion processes.Allow your e-mail address to be used for communication.The Administrators' reading list can help you understand the basics of the policy.
Step 3: Follow these instructions to nominate yourself.
The way the nomination process works is to seek consensus by supporting the user and giving constructive criticism to the editors.Before a decision is made, your previous work will be reviewed thoroughly.If you are a young editor, you may want to wait for someone else to nominate you as administrator.
Step 4: Answer all the standardized questions by creating a subpage.
Step 5: Post your nomination at the "request for adminship" page after you accept it.
Step 6: Take part in the "RfA" request for administrator proceedings.
Editors will ask you more questions.A bureaucrat will decide after a week whether consensus has been reached or not.Nominees with 75% or higher amount of support will pass, and nominations with less than 75% will fail.There are "crat chats" where several bureaucrats will discuss whether or not to promote you.
