Staff are users on Grand Theft Wiki with the responsibility to keep the wiki running smoothly. The main job of all Staff is to help users, so don't hesitate to ask a member of Staff if you have any problems or questions.

Certain Staff also have various rights, administrative tools and authority over the wiki. There are three levels of Staff on Grand Theft Wiki.

No users other than the ones mentioned here have any administrative or decision-making authority. Trusted Users are not staff members, but simply regular users trusted with some restricted tools.
