Currently, there are admins on :

LOTRMod | talk  | contribs  | edit stats


 * LOTRMod, aka Mevans, is the modder for the LOTR Minecraft mod, the guy behind the scenes. He has skills greater than Sauron and Melkor themselves, and will destroy anyone who asks for Gandalf instantly. He also previously created the Lion King Mod, which he merged into this mod.

Thorin11 | talk  | contribs  | edit stats


 * Thorin was the first non-founder admin on this wiki, and has been here since the beginning. Little is known about the mysterious past of Thorin, or where he resides today. However, it is known that Thorin11 is actually the wiki alias of Yorick, a now rather inactive FB moderator.

Sinthoniel | talk  | contribs  | edit stats


 * Sinthoniel is actually the (officially) pacifistic Pallando, who will offer a treat to anyone who makes it through his endless spoiler templates. Sinthoniel is a genius when it comes to code and NBT Data. He is a great fan of Eragon and currently working on an Eragon mod.

Gen. Grievous1138 | talk  | contribs  | edit stats


 * General Grievous1138 is a huge fan of both the LOTR and Star Wars. He is notorious among the wiki users for being merciless when it comes to those who do not follow wiki policies. Unfortunately for said users, he is the one on most of the time and moniters all activity. However, if you do nothing to anger him, he is a calm guy and will answer any question you have as best he can. He lists his faction as Mordor, but really it's Kalee. His war against Beijing1000 and Glflegolas is in the final stages of planning, and the horror he will unleash may annihilate all of time and space....

<font color=Navy>Areades | <font color=Navy>talk  | <font color=Navy>contribs  | <font color=Navy>edit stats


 * Areades is new to wikia and is a newer admin. He is a big fan of all of Tolkien's works, as well as other books, like Harry Potter. He, like the General, will happily ban those who do not follow wiki policies. He is knows many features of wikia and is happy to help. the Witch-King of Angmar.

<font color=DarkGreen>Beijing1000 | <font color=DarkGreen>Send me an owl  | <font color=DarkGreen>contribs  | <font color=DarkGreen>edit stats


 * Beijing1000 is currently the top contributor on this wiki. In Minecraft, her username is HPFanatic, and she is a ginormous fan of Lord of the Rings (obviously), Harry Potter, and Game of Thrones. She is a very active admin on this wiki, so you can be sure she reads every single edit made by anyone. Within the LOTR fandom, she is a true Gondorian which means she will probably wage war against Gen. Grievous sometime in the near future.

<font color=Gold>Glflegolas | <font color=Gold>talk  | <font color=Gold>contribs  | <font color=Gold>edit stats


 * Glflegolas is the second oldest contributor here, and has been on the wiki since the 25th of June, 2014. He is quite knowledgeable in Lord of the Rings and the history of Arda, and often checks out the "recent edits" section of the wiki. His favourite server is the One Ring server (where he is known as Captain_Faramir), and he occasionally meets Sinthoniel and Commandogregor1234 on that server. As a Gondorian, he is quite likely to join up with Beijing1000 and attack Gen. Grievous1138 sooner or later.

<font color=#00CCFF>Handles-081 | <font color=#00CCFF>Talk to me  | <font color=#00CCFF>My Contributions  | <font color=#00CCFF>Statistics


 * Handles is the newest admin on the team and has been playing the mod since the start. He is a fan of all things Tolkien and also enjoys works by John Flanagan. He has joined forces with Areades and Gen. Grievous in the war against 'good'. He is the user with the most 'Achievements' on the wiki and is good at manipulating wiki code. He also refuses to use anything but the Classic editor when working on the wiki.

The Power of the Gods
Admins can do things that normal contributors can't. That's why they are admins, you know? Here is a list of things that only admins can do:


 * Renaming pages


 * Deleting pages


 * Banning users (also see: Banning Guideline for Admins)


 * Protecting pages


 * Editing protected pages


 * De-/Activating wiki features (such as badges)


 * Editing or deleting any comment, blog, forum thread, or user page


 * Changing the design (CSS and wiki theme) and menu structure of the wiki

The Responsibility of an Admin
Being an admin is not just a privilege but also a responsibility. The main task for admins is to make sure that the wiki runs as intended. The main tasks of admins are:


 * Deleting and renaming pages on request


 * Moderating the chat by warning or banning misbehaving users (also see: Banning Guideline for Admins)


 * Deleting wrong or unhelpful information on pages and eventually ban the responsible user


 * Help users with editing pages
