SmashWiki is administered by members of the community with tools that general users do not possess; these members have the rights of a sysop, bureaucrat, or both. Sysops have the ability to block disruptive users, protect pages from edits, delete pages that the wiki doesn't need, and quickly revert vandalism with the rollback tool.

It is also important to note that sysop/bureaucrat status is not required to enforce policy; if, however, the additional tools are needed to resolve a situation, please leave a message on the [[SmashWiki: | SmashWiki is administered by members of the community with tools that general users do not possess; these members have the rights of a sysop, bureaucrat, or both.
