Staff Rights

 * Whoah! YOu got Staff rights one 1-2 edits total in the first hour without asking? That is impressive. Do you know if I could become a Staff someday or another? I have to say. Impressive O_o. Jello Rabbit 20:03, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Haha, actually, I am an actual member of the Wiki staff, hence the staff rights. I am the category manager of the gaming vertical, so I help oversee the entire gaming wiki network. My job's to help the community and the admins make their wikis as amazing as possible. And you too could one day get staff rights; you'd need to get a job here at Wiki, but it's definitely possible. tae (talk ) 20:12, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * I mean how did you get it at by making one edit on wiki which was uploading a file replacement for your userpage? That is my question. Jello Rabbit 20:14, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * By being hired on as a paid employee of Wiki. Staff rights are given only to members who are actually on the Wiki payroll. So even though I've made only 1 edit, I am still considered staff due to my status here within the company. The same is true for many others. Hope that answers your question. tae (talk ) 20:18, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * You get paid for the work? What exactly is a payroll btw? Jello Rabbit 20:19, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * I am paid to perform the role of category manager of the gaming vertical, yes. And payroll means I am an official employee of Wiki the company. tae (talk ) 20:22, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well if I want to be staff, I would not want to be paid because I would rather keep my location private. Any open positions? I mainly majorly construct articles for some more info. Jello Rabbit 20:25, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * You can find a list of our current job openings at our Careers page. Good luck! tae (talk ) 20:48, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Do I have to be a member in real life or online? I prefer online. Jello Rabbit 20:53, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Jello, I think you're a little confused as to what the Staff tag actually means. It means you are an employee of Wiki; you get the tag by becoming a paid member of the staff. In order to do this, you must apply for an open position, go through an interview/hiring process, and become a legal employee. In short, it is a job. The only people who have Staff tags are those who are paid by Wiki to work for them; this is not a tag you can get through any other means. So while we love your enthusiasm and your desire to get the tag, you cannot have it unless you get a job here at Wiki. I hope that clears things up. tae (talk ) 21:20, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

Do you do anything to maintain this wiki?
8 edits seems pretty low. Also, do you have anything to do with w:Template:Wiki Gaming Footer. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 2 Sep 2011 8:46 AM Pacific

I do not maintain this wiki as it is a community wiki that has its own admins and editors. And I do not have anything to do with the footer. Why do you ask? tae (talk ) 18:13, September 2, 2011 (UTC)
