Stewards

To contact a Steward, please visit the Stewards' noticeboard or directly contact one of the Stewards listed below.

Stewards are users with the permission and authority to use any part of the MediaWiki interface on any wiki. Their permissions include being able to globally block users, globally rename users, change any user rights on any wiki, change global group memberships and permissions, and create wikis.

Although Stewards possess a wide variety of user rights on all Miraheze wikis, they generally do not use these rights unless a request explicitly comes from the local community or there is no user with local rights to perform the action requested.

As the only global "administrative" group, Stewards can be seen as the go-to authority for interpreting community consensus, and having the final approval for Miraheze-wide policies and Meta Wiki policies. As such, their opinion should be respected unless an obvious community consensus appears, in which case community consensus should overrule unless not possible for legal or technical reasons.
