Question
What's an "adminmentor"? When I visit the "Special:Block" page, it says I don't have "permission to block this user from editing" and also says, "The action you have requested is limited to users in one of the groups: Administrators, Bureaucrats, Wikia Staff, VSTF, Wikia Helpers, adminmentor."...

 * answer. You aren't an Admin, Bureaucrat, Staff, or Adminmentor.
 * -captain falcon (I am seriously going to leave and was never blocked in the first place so don't say none true things Boggy B.)


 * Captain Falcon &mdash; That's an answer, but not to the question that was asked.


 * Boggy B &mdash; An adminmentor is someone who contributes to the Admin Mentor Program (AMP), which is a program set up by Wikia to help out inexperienced admins/wiki communities. When it is determined that a particular wiki will receive aid from the AMP, one of the contributors to the project will be given "adminmentor" rights (which are functionally normal admin rights, with the stipulation that they won't use most of the rights unless the absolutely have to) on the wiki in question so that they can help out with a variety of things, ranging from best practices for using certain tools, to making/changing MediaWiki pages and templates, to SEO.


 * So, in short, adminmentors are exactly what they sound like: mentors to inexperienced admins.

 * Captain Falcon, I originally wrote another rude message for you here, but I've removed it, so read this instead (only Captain Falcon should click on that link, it's a private message).


 * Oscuritaforze, thank you for telling me. I'm glad you're not inactive like everyone else. But one more thing (sorry for all the questions), Koenachtig, Orangitu, and Danuhau are all sysops instead of administrators (that's what I saw in one of the links you've sent me). Aren't sysops slightly different than admins? I thought they were "Wikimedia administrators with limited admin privileges" (I got this information a long time ago, from an online dictionary).

 * "Sysop" and "administrator" may have had different meanings at one point (maybe in the early days of Wikipedia), but they are now used interchangeably. Any user you see listed as a sysop on any wiki has admin rights on that wiki.

 * Thanks, you have quite a lot of wiki knowledge.

Ban Captain Falcon!
Take a look at this. He's trying to convert me into a Christian. He doesn't believe me when I say my religion (Islam) is the truth, now he won't leave me alone! I warned him that I'll contact an admin to block him if he doesn't stop trying to proselytize, but he doesn't listen. So please block him for an infinite period of time. I'm sending this message to Orangitu, also. Captain Falcon, don't you dare erase this message.
