== Obtaining the group ==

Once you are officially added to the moderation team, please contact a bureaucrat by posting in [https://matrix.to/#/#wiki:nixos.org #wiki:nixos.org on Matrix], emailing [mailto:wiki@nixos.org wiki@nixos.org], or by [[Special:ListUsers/bureaucrat|leaving a message on a bureaucrat's talk page]].

== Guide ==

=== Reverting changes ===

Moderators, like all users, can [[mediawikiwiki:Manual:Reverts|revert individual changes]]. Additionally, moderators have [[mediawikiwiki:Manual:Rollback|a special <code>rollback</code> right]], allowing them to revert multiple changes at once without confirmation. Please note that '''the changes and their reverts, including rollbacks, are visible in the page history'''; please see [[#Hiding revisions|§ Hiding revisions]] for a way to hide revisions from view.

=== Deleting pages ===

Moderators can delete entire pages from the NixOS Wiki, making its revision history inaccessible in the process. See [[mediawikiwiki:Help:Deletion and undeletion|the MediaWiki manual]] for usage instructions. For more granular control over removing content, see [[#Reverting changes|§ Reverting changes]] and [[#Hiding revisions|§ Hiding revisions]].

=== Blocking users ===

When suspending a user, moderators are able to block users to prevent them from making edits to the wiki. See [[mediawikiwiki:Help:Blocking users|the MediaWiki manual]] for usage instructions.

=== Hiding revisions ===

Moderators have the [[mediawikiwiki:Help:RevisionDelete|<code>oversight</code>]] permission, allowing them to make page revisions inaccessible. See [[mediawikiwiki:Help:RevisionDelete#Using RevisionDelete|the MediaWiki manual]] for usage instructions.

=== Protecting pages ===

Moderators can protect a page, preventing it from being edited. See [[mediawikiwiki:Help:Protected pages|the MediaWiki manual]] for usage instructions.
