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 four levels of Staff on Grand Theft Wiki. No users other than the ones mentioned here have any administrative privileges or decision-making authority.

Other Rights

Several other user groups and rights exist on the wiki, but are not staff positions:

  • Trusted Users - This group is for users who the staff know to be trustworthy. Edits made by Trusted users are not examined by staff as often as edits by other users.
  • Autoconfirmed - Users are automatically promoted to the Autoconfirmed group once they have been registered on Grand Theft Wiki for a certain length of time. The only additional right is to edit semi-protected pages.
  • Checkuser - This is the ability to see users' IP addresses and block them. This is reserved for trusted staff only, to maintain user privacy.
  • Staff - This group is only for editing awards & gifts in social profiles. This is not used.
  • Oversight - This group has the ability to permanently delete pages, images, edits and revisions from the wiki. This is not used.
