'''Administrators''' (also known as '''sysops''' or '''admins''') on [[<tvar name=about>Special:MyLanguage/Project:About</tvar>|MediaWiki.org]] are users with the technical capability to protect and delete pages, block users, and edit protected pages, among other things.

<!--T:2-->
To become an admin, ask at [[<tvar name=requests>Project:Requests</tvar>|Project:Requests]].  Information on the promotion process can be found there.

<!--T:3-->
Lists of [[<tvar name=sysop>Special:ListUsers/sysop</tvar>|current admins]], and [[<tvar name=bureaucrat>Special:ListUsers/bureaucrat</tvar>|current bureaucrats]] are available. To request a deletion, see <tvar name=deletion>{{ll|Project:Deletion}}</tvar>.
