{{Main|Destinypedia talk:Patrollers#Requests}} | |||
Patrollers are usually selected on an as-needed basis only. Because the main purpose of the patroller program is to mark good-quality page revisions for the aid of preserving article quality, users with good-quality edits and regular activity under their name are usually seen as potential candidates to join the program. | |||
Users who want to become patrollers have the ability to submit a request for patroller rights on the talk page. Admins may also nominate users to join the patroller group. The following requirements have been set forth for those requesting patroller status: | |||
;Requirements | |||
*Users must have at least '''[[Special:Editcount|1,200 edits]]''' or '''sysop status on another wiki''' (please link to the wiki). | |||
*A member of Destinypedia for at least four months. | |||
*No history of vandalism, abuse of Destinypedia, or compromised accounts for the user in question. | |||
*No history of blocking on the basis of harassment or personal attacks. | |||
All requests will be reviewed by the administration, who will decide whether or not to approve or deny the request. There is no limit to the amount of times a user may apply for patroller rights. However, users must wait at least one month to submit a new request after any unsuccessful requests. | |||
===Retired/inactive admins=== | |||
{{Main|Destinypedia:Administrators#Inactivity and resignation procedures}} | |||
