Different users have access to different functions of the site. While anyone can do most things on the site, including reading and editing, administrators can access a few additional functions.

Sysop is synonymous with administrator.

Administrators

Administrator abilities

These additional functions include:

Locking (protecting) a page so it cannot be edited or renamed by users without admin rights or autoconfirmed status.
Blocking IP addresses or user names from editing; and very quick "rollback" of undesirable edits.
Editing the interface by changing system messages and skins.

Bureaucrat abilities

A bureaucrat can make other users into bureaucrats or administrators on their own wiki.

Bureaucrats can also give users the ability to "rollback" edits not made in good faith.

Becoming an administrator

The LBP Union Ministry of Intelligence is responsible for appointing administrators and is solely at the discretion of the Minister.

 A '''bureaucrat''' can make other users into bureaucrats or administrators on their own wiki.
 Bureaucrats can also give users the ability to "rollback" edits not made in good faith.

+==Becoming an administrator==
-Wikia staff members have full access to all Wikia. They will be shown in Special:Listusers/staff on any wiki. Please use Special:Contact to contact Wikia staff.
+The LBP Union Ministry of Intelligence is responsible for appointing administrators and is solely at the discretion of the Minister.
-== Becoming an administrator ==
-For you to become an administrator, someone with bureaucrat access must make you one. For the LBP Union Archives, users who wish to become Administrators should post at [[LBPU Wiki: Requests for Adminship|Requests for Adminship.]] Please review the requirements for administrator access before posting.
-== What can administrators not do? ==
-Administrators should not use their administrator powers to settle editing disputes; for example, to lock a page on a version he or she prefers in an editing dispute that isn't vandalism. Administrator powers should be used to help keep the wiki clear of vandalism, spam, and users who make malicious edits, but not for simple disagreements between users acting in good faith. Ideally an admin shouldn't be considered "in charge." The ideal admin is just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the Wikia community.
