__NOTOC__
Different users have access to different functions of the site. While anyone can do most things on the site, including reading and editing, '''administrators''' can access a few additional functions.

[[File:AdminBadge.png|70px|left|link=]]
*Deleting and undeleting pages and page histories. Administrators can also delete uploaded files, but cannot undelete them.
'''Administrators''' (also known as '''Admins''' or '''Sysops''') are a group of experienced users who maintain the wiki through enforcing policies and the use of special functions given to them (see a list below). Given the amount of experience they have on the wiki, they are usually the best users to contact whenever you have a question. Administrators are usually found on the wiki's [[Project:IRC|IRC channel]] whenever they are online.
*Locking (protecting) a page so it can not be edited or renamed by users without admin rights.
==Notice board==
*Blocking IP addresses or user names from editing; and very quick "rollback" of undesirable edits.

===Permanent admins===
These users were voted upon by the community by means of a vote and will serve indefinite terms until they resign, become inactive, or are impeached by the community. They are identified by the <span style='color:darkgreen; font-weight:bold'>bold dark green</span> name found on the [[Special:RecentChanges|recent changes]].

===Temporary admins===
Sometimes it may be necessary to promote several users to adminship when multiple admins are away or when there is a vandalism attack. The following users have temporary adminship to help run the wiki for the time being.

A '''bureaucrat''' can make other users into bureaucrats or administrators on their own wiki. They are not currently able to remove admin access from any user. Please contact one of the community staff if you need this done.

Some Wikia staff members have full access to all Wikia. They will be shown in [[Special:Listusers/staff]] on any wiki. Please see the Central Wikia [[Wikia:Contact us|contact page]] for details on how to contact Wikia staff.

!Description
==Who are this wiki's administrators?==
The "founder" of a wiki, the person who first requested it, is given administrator access automatically. Founders are also given bureaucrat access so they can make any other user on their wiki an administrator or bureaucrat. For a complete list of users with administrator access, see [[Special:Listadmins]]. Each Administrator and their signature are listed below. You can always ask these administrators on their talk page, for any issues.
 
===Current Administrators===
*'''Fully Active''' - These are the best users to contact when you need an Administrator. They log on every day.
*'''Almost Fully Active''' - These users log on most of the time. These users are good to contact, but not for emergencies. These users may be active on [[Club Penguin Wiki:IRC|IRC]], but not fully active here. You may wish to visit our IRC channel to see them and the rest of the Active Admins.
*'''Semi-Active''' - These users are '''not recommended to contact''', because they log on only sometimes, and do not stay for long periods of time.
*'''Uncommon''' - These users are '''extremely''' uncommon to see. They still visit, but rarely do.
*'''Inactive''' - Do not contact these users. They do not log on at all. They will be demoted soon.
*'''Resigned''' - These users have resigned/quit the Club Penguin Wiki (and will be demoted soon).
*'''Away''' These users are currently away. (e.g. on vacation.)
 
If you are changing a user's status, please use their [[Special:Contributions|contributions]] to come to a conclusion and not your opinion.
 
Want to know more about the admins? Look at their user pages, which describe them. Other people will have user pages too.

Administrators (also known as Admins or Sysops) are a group of experienced users who maintain the wiki through enforcing policies and the use of special functions given to them (see a list below). Given the amount of experience they have on the wiki, they are usually the best users to contact whenever you have a question. Administrators are usually found on the wiki's IRC channel whenever they are online.

Notice board

Current admins

Permanent admins

These users were voted upon by the community by means of a vote and will serve indefinite terms until they resign, become inactive, or are impeached by the community. They are identified by the bold dark green name found on the recent changes.
