Wiki Administration Guide

This is intended as a resource for leads to be able to do administrative stuff on the wiki, since a lot of it is really unintuitive and hard to find.

Adding Users to the Wiki

 * 1) First, have the users register a new account, and get their username. I would recommend making some kind of separate thread on whatever communication platform you're using or a Google form to collect usernames.
 * 2) Then, go to Special:UserRights and enter each username, and select the checkbox next to the "member" role. Click "Save user groups". This should give them the permission to read and edit most pages; for a detailed list of what permissions are given to each group, see the Special:ListGroupRights page.
 * 1) Repeat for each user. Unfortunately, there isn't currently a way to do this in batch.

If you want to remove a user's rights for any reason, return to the same page and uncheck the box. It's also possible to set an automatic expiry. If you do remove someone's rights, please use the "Reason" box to explain the change, so we can have an informative audit history.

Useful Admin Pages

 * Special:UserRights - View/edit the group memberships of a user.
 * Special:ListGroupRights - View the list of groups on the wiki and the permissions granted by each.
