| '''#wikipedia-en-admins''' is a closed channel for administrators on the English Misplaced Pages. Many Commons admins, former admins and developers are there as well. | |||
| ==Purpose== | |||
| There's a lot of chitchat, but it's basically somewhere to talk about admin work. It's also amazing how people who argue furiously on the wiki can be a lot nicer in real time. It's good for quickly asking questions. Admins are more likely to find a checkuser when they're in a hurry too. | |||
| The channel was created by ] to deal with urgent ] issues. Foundation staff and board members will often go onto the channel with a problem needing solving. | |||
| ==Conduct on the channel== | |||
| You're an admin, you were picked for your judgement. Use it. | |||
| The channel is private, but logs do leak. Comport yourself in a collegiate manner. Try not to disparage editors under discussion, it'll get back to them. | |||
| The channel is useful for double-checking yourself, but don't decide things based on an IRC discussion without noting it on ] for review. You might be wrong. | |||
| ==How to get access== | |||
| # Get an IRC cloak . (Sean then processes these by hand.) | |||
| # Request access on ], giving your cloak. (David then processes these by hand.) | |||
| David and JamesF would quite like all en:wp admins on this channel, particularly new ones. Though IRC is ''not'' mandatory to being an admin, and if anyone tries to make it a criterion for support at ] they should be ignored as hard as possible. | |||
