The admin noticeboard is one way through which users can notify administrators of issues needing administrative attention. While users are welcome to directly contact specific administrators (especially if they are seen to be active), posting here can be an easier and quicker way of ensuring that at least one admin will notice an issue and respond to it promptly. Remember to sign (using four tildes: Wither Slayer five thousand 19:01, 17 February 2021 (UTC)) when posting an issue.

Before posting an issue here, please consider the following:

   This page is for reporting wiki issues. Please post any discussions on the community portal talk page.
   Post only issues that require administrative action, i.e. blocking vandals, protecting pages, restoring deleted pages etc.
   Do not post deletion requests here; instead, the page should be tagged for deletion.
   Do not post issues regarding content disputes. Try making a request for comment instead.
   Mediation requests between users should only be made once a resolution could not be reached between users.
   For issues regarding the use of this wiki, please see our help center.
   For issues with filters preventing edits from being saved: filters are not able to be disabled for specific people. However, an admin may be able to perform the edit themselves for you. "New user" filters expire after you log in and make some edits around the wiki.

In case of vandalism, posting about it here is low priority. Revert it first, anyone can do so. If the vandal created a new page, tag it for deletion. Assume good faith and consider leaving a message on that user's talk page to explain the reason. Post here only if the user has made several disruptive edits and/or persists despite a warning. Always avoid a revert war with the vandal; it is far better to wait until an admin has a chance to intervene.

If a user must be reported here, do not create a new section. Instead, add * Template:Vandal Your concise reason (e.g. vandalised past 4th warning). Wither Slayer five thousand 19:01, 17 February 2021 (UTC) in the Block requests section.

If a protection or unprotection request must be requested here, do not create a new section. Instead, add * Template:Pl duration (temporary or indefinite) and protection level: Your concise reason (e.g. constant spam and vandalism). <nowiki>Wither Slayer five thousand 19:01, 17 February 2021 (UTC) in the Protection requests section.
