'''Requests for bureaucratship''' ('''Rfb''') is the process by which this wiki's community decides who should be a Bureaucrat ('''B-Crat'''). '''B-Crat''' have access to changing usernames, changing one "user rights", and resolving a dispute.

==About RfB==

The community grants bureaucratship status to trusted users who are familiar with Battlestar Wiki's policies. '''B-Crat''' held to high standards, as they are often perceived as the "official face" of Battlestar Wiki. '''B-Crat''' should be courteous and should exercise good judgment and patience in dealing with others. Nominees should have been with Battlestar Wiki long enough for people to see whether they have these qualities. However, they do not need to be a sysop to be nominated to an '''B-Crat'''.

; '''Nomination standards'''

:There are no official prerequisites for '''B-Crat'''ness, other than a basic level of trust from other editors. However, some users set a variety of [[Battlestar Wiki:Requests for bureaucratship/Standards|standards]] on a personal basis. You may nominate yourself. Some people apply higher standards to self-nominations, while others view them more favorably as showing initiative and desire to serve the community.

; '''Nomination process'''

: Any user in good standing may nominate any other user. Nominations remain for seven days from the time the nomination is posted on this page, during which time interested users register their opinions or make comments. At the end of that period, candidates who receive consensus supported will be made '''B-Crat'''. Head Wikipedian for Battlestar Wiki, [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin Jr.]], has the final say.

:In exceptional circumstances, [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] may extend the deadline or call for a revote if this will make the consensus more clear. If your nomination fails, please wait a reasonable period of time – at least a month – before nominating yourself again or accepting another nomination.

:Bureaucrats, please use <tt><b><nowiki>{{subst:rfbp}}-{{subst:rfbb}}</nowiki></b></tt> as a header and footer, respectively, when closing a successful nomination. Similarly, use <tt><b><nowiki>{{subst:rfbf}}-{{subst:rfbb}}</nowiki></b></tt> for a failed nomination.

; '''How to nominate an editor for B-Crat'''

:To nominate either yourself or another user for '''B-Crat''', [[Battlestar Wiki:Requests for bureaucratship/nominate|follow the instructions on this page]].

; '''Voting and commenting'''

:Any Wikipedian with an account is welcome to vote, including the nominator (however, because the focus is on whether other people in the community trust the user, '''self-nominating candidates or nominees should not vote for themselves'''). To add your vote, click the "Vote here" link for the relevant candidate. You may then indicate whether you '''support''' or '''oppose''' the nomination by signing your name under the relevant heading.
:Please include a short explanation of your reasoning, particularly when opposing a nomination. Remember that we are all people with feelings, emotions and pride: please respect others in your comments and responses.
:'''Neutral''' votes are also permitted, but not necessarily counted in determining percentages, although they will be considered by bureaucrats in borderline cases. Discussions should be held in the '''Comments''' section. Long discussions should be held on the '''discussion page''' of the individual nomination.
:If you are new to Battlestar Wiki, it is believed that new users may not fully understand the nuances or job responsibilities of an '''B-Crat'''. Therefore, while new users are encouraged to ''comment'' on RFBs, they may not vote. Should they vote, their votes will not be counted.

'''

; '''Executive privilege'''

:Please note that in special, extenuating circumstances, [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] may exercise executive privilege and appoint a user to '''B-Crat''' status. (At the same time, should the issue arise, an '''B-Crat''' may have their privileges revoked by Joe Beaudoin for any reason.)
