Channel Operators

The channel operators are trusted members of the community who therefore have special status in the channel. In the IRC channel, they have symbols next to their names (~, &, @, and %) so that they can easily be identified as people who are knowledgeable about the wiki. They also have some special privileges in case it is necessary to enforce the channel's guidelines.

By default, wiki administrators and patrollers who register with IRC are automatically given operator and half-operator privileges, respectively. The wiki nomination processes have already established that these editors are trusted by the community. That said, a person who is an operator or half-operator on the IRC channel doesn't automatically have any wiki privileges. The channel operators are:

Operators

Operators are the users responsible for enforcing the rules. They can give out temporary operator/half-operator/voiced status, change the topic, kick users, ban users, and invite users to the channel.

• Ratwar (also has founder and owner statuses in the channel, so he can also grant people permanent statuses, can give out permanent administrator status, and change the channel's underlying settings.)
• GK (also has administrator status in the channel, so she can also grant people permanent statuses)
• Eshe
• Timenn

Half-operators

Half-operators are like sub-operators. They can give out temporary half-operator/voiced status, change the topic, kick users, ban users, and invite users to the channel.

• Atreus
• Dlarsh
• GL
• Krusty
• RobinHood70

Voiced Users

Voiced users have no special privileges, other than being able to talk while the channel is muted, like the rest of the operators.

• Peregrine (an IRC bot maintained by Atreus)
