The need for management of Undertale Wiki grows along with its content. This is why various staff positions can be applied for from this page.
The following sections describe the tools and permissions each staff group have and minimum requirements a user must meet to apply for these groups. Please note that the current wiki staff have the final say, and meeting the minimum requirements for a position does not necessarily mean a user will be promoted to that position. After making sure you are meeting the requirements outlined below, you can use the application form to leave your request for rights on this page's talk page, and an administrator will respond to it in 2-3 days at most.
A list of current staff members can be found here, and a detailed list of user group permissions can be found here.
General[]
To apply for any wiki staff position, a user must:
- Have read and understood the wiki's policy.
- Not have been blocked from the wiki in the past three months.
- Have a professional and non-hostile disposition.
- Not have attempted an application to a staff position in the past month.
Moderators[]
Moderators have various tools to moderate wiki content, such as article and file management, including their deletion, undeletion, and protection. Current members of this group can be seen here, and applications prior to 2021 can be found here.
To apply for a position of a moderator, a user must:
- Have over 300 article contributions.
- Be known to wiki staff members.
- Have shown good intentions that require the specific tools of a moderator to properly execute.
- Have an active channel of communication with other wiki staff members (for example, the Discord server.)
Administrators[]
Administrators are the local user group with the biggest tool set. This group has the abilities of moderators alongside some additional permissions such as editing system messages, the wiki's theme, and moderating discussions. They also have the ability to promote other users to moderators. Current members of this group can be seen here, and applications prior to 2021 can be found here.
To apply for a position of an administrator, a user must:
- Have previously been a moderator over a span of three months and have been active in using their tools.
- Have requested enough administrative actions to be taken by users with elevated permissions to the point where it would be beneficial for the requester to receive these permissions.
- Have partial or full knowledge of using administrator tools and an idea of how they would be using them if they received the administrator position.
Note: The bureaucrat user group assigned to administrators grants them the ability to promote other users to bureaucrats, administrators, and moderators. Because the bureaucrat user group is the highest local user group on the wiki, it cannot be applied for.
Application[]
To apply for a staff position, input your username in the form below, click the Apply button, fill in the form fields on the talkpage, and submit your edit.

Being a local staff member on Undertale Wiki requires an amount of dedication before and after the application, and user group changes are not to be taken lightly.
