I, Aang on a sec, request to be a moderator. I feel that I am suitable to act as a moderator and focus on the Discussions side of the wiki. I believe that although I have not been on the wiki for long, I would be a good choice for a moderator because I am extremely active on both sides of the wiki and I aim to read up on all the dos and don’ts when it comes to threads and discussions in the near future. I am willing to help in whatever way I can, and will happily take advice and criticism from anyone who wants to give it. I also love the discussions that take place on this wiki and participate in them a lot already, and my activity will also not be decreasing after the end of the Coronavirus pandemic. Thank you for reading, good luck to everyone, and I hope we can make this wiki a better place by working together in the future. Aang on a sec 09:03, April 23, 2020 (UTC)
- Not done While there is certainly no doubt as to your history of strong contributions to the forums and discussions, I do not see any past instances of comment moderation from you or cases where you have shown a need for moderator rights. These rights are not given out as just a reflection of activity or participation in the forums or discussions, but to enable users that help to moderate these areas already to do so more easily. I commend your desire to learn more about the guidelines and policies we have on the wiki, and not having these rights doesn't stop you from helping to ensure our policies are followed. With more instances of comment moderation, I would certainly feel happy in giving you these rights in the future. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 16:51, April 23, 2020 (UTC)

Well em, hello I am Blais, and first of all i hope I'm using this as it should be used. As introduction I wanna be honest, I honestly was mad since my Good companions Aang on a Sec and EchoEmpire got this rigths, and well specially seeing that Echo was personally messaged. But well I would like to apologize for having such reaction, but I wanted to be honest to everyone at first. I thougth about it, meditated, call it whatever it is, and listened to Lostris, and well acting as a "hey Imma be mad at you because of this reason" would be childish, and well, I'm mature enough to correct that... Moving on the request:
I'm really open minded, listen to everyone's opinion and offently active on the discussions forum. I don't think another discussion moderator is needed after Aang on a sec and EchoEmpire got such rigths, and I'm sure they will do good with them. I'm just applying to grant you the fast way of giving me when necessary the discussion moderator rigths, if you think three active moderators rigth now are much, I'll gladly accept a no as an answer.
Continuing on why I think I could do good and help being a moderator... well first of I know what you dear administrators look for to grant such rigths. As the Word says… moderation. I'm pretty calm and always look for the rigth and easy answer, also know you want to put taggs from the characters mentioned on the posts created by users, and I can be easily found on discord. And specially, I hope that with my addition I could help on the discussions, and you guys wouldn't have to put many eyes to see if everything it's perfect there, unless you want to hop into a discussion =). Sorry for any posible tipos and thanks for reading
When I say you guys I'm refering to the admins, sorry for the overuse of that lol

- Done Just keep in mind that user rights are not a mark of prestige, but a way for trusted users to help the wiki. It is not because someone has been given rights that they are in any way better, and having rights is not needed to help and contribute to the wiki. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 17:51, April 30, 2020 (UTC)

I, adibehre17, would like to formally request to apply for moderator.
adibehre17 (wall · contribs · editcount · logs)
A few reasons why I believe I should be moderator:
- It is important for moderators to be quite active as if there is a lack of activity, things may get chaotic. I am active daily, checking the avatar wiki 2-3 times a day. With this activity, there will be no worry of not having a moderator around. In fact, I create posts/polls not only for my interest but for community benefit as people who respond to my posts get to communicate in a healthy, fun, and welcoming way. This leads to my next point.
- If at any point, whether in my posts/polls or others, I see any form of rules/policies not being followed, I make sure to try to patch things up as any moderator should. Recently, one user claimed to be 'Throwing up in my mouth' when reading someone's comment. I made sure to call the person out in a fair way by mentioning how that kind of comment was not kind. Later, I got a message in my message wall saying I did the right thing by making sure things did not get out of hand, calling me a 'moderate person'. I understand that it is not my job to moderate chats as I am not a moderator. However, I feel like it is my duty and responsibility that everyone who is a pre-existing member or a new member feels safe to chat and communicate without having to worry of what others will say.
- Lastly, I have never been flagged or reported for any misconduct as a user.
Thank you for your consideration of my request. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adibehre17 (wall • contribs) 17:10, July 8, 2020 (UTC)
- Not done The example that you provide is certainly the sort of action that we would want to see from a moderator and demonstrates that you have the correct attitude, but I do not see any other instances of comment moderation or where you have shown a need for these rights. If you continue to help moderate the comments, which I should note you do not need moderator rights to do, and gain more experience on Discussions then I would be happy to give you these rights in the future.

I know I'm more active on the Discord, but I've been more frequenting the discussion boards as of late and I would love to be able to assist where needed should any issues arise. Very much similar to my current rollback rights, I wouldn't expect to be using this every day, but I figure if I'm already there, and something comes up, it would be a good thing to have. Zacatero • (Wall) • 01:07, August 2, 2020 (UTC)
- Not done I am glad to see you posting with more frequency on the boards, but I do not see any history of moderation in your contributions. The rights are not given out because there may be instances where you could use them in the future, but because a user has demonstrated a history of doing so already and the rights will enable them to do so more effectively. If you reapply in the future with a history of helping to moderate (e.g. helping other users in understanding the guidelines or with other problems, highlighting posts that need checking) then I would be happy to give you these rights.

Flameo! I'd like to request moderator rights, because I think I could be helpful with the discussions. I try to be friendly and respectful to others and their opinions and help them in any way I can, let people know when they post something that appears frequently on the boards and ask them to stay respectful when they use inappropriate language, though that's very rarely needed. I want to be as active as possible and, while activity is not good reason to become a moderator, I think it's important for this role on the wiki. Thank you for reading my request. Gligo's in love with Azula 9:26, August 6, 2020 (UTC)
Done Your positive posts on the discussion boards and helpful demeanour certainly help make this decision easier. You are active on the discussion boards and have actively been helping to moderate even without rights. I am extremely confident you will make good use of moderator rights.

Hello! I would like to request discussion moderator rights. Though our current moderators already do an excellent job, I believe that I could be a helpful addition to their team; I have found that I live in a different timezone than many of the mod's and am active on the site when they aren't. I try to be positive presence in the discussions, help users when needed, and report when necessary. If accepted, I will work to be a kind, active, helpful, and fair moderator. Thank you for your consideration! IᖇOᕼ'ᔕ ᒍᗩᔕᗰIᑎE TEᗩ (wall • contribs) 04:57, October 9, 2020 (UTC)
- Done You have an excellent history of reporting posts, and display the attitude we want to see in your interactions with other users. I am happy to give you these rights. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 11:44, October 9, 2020 (UTC)

Hi, its me. I would like to request for moderator rights. As there are not a lot of moderators as active now, I feel like that I would be a nice addition to the team. I am a helpful person and stick to the rules. Also, I am loyal, trustworthy, kind, fair, can see other sides of the argument and just overall good. I am quite understanding and learn from my mistakes. I would love to help other people on this wiki as moderators have helped me. Thank you for your time. -TFfk
- Not done You have definitely demonstrated a desire to help moderate the boards, in both reporting of posts and directly commenting on posts when needed. However, my concern is that you have sometimes been overzealous in how you have approached moderation. Demonstrating an understanding of how and when use of moderation tools is needed is more important than simply the number of posts reported. Therefore, I feel that it would beneficial for you to gain more experience of when moderation is needed and how we apply the guidelines; if you do so and apply for these rights again in the future, I would be happy to accept your request.

I, Hanabi-chan, am formally requesting moderator rights. I have a history of moderating the discussions, including one time from work while I was on my lunch break. I have already discussed this with Lady Lostris, who has stated that she would not mind adding me to the team, and was only hesitating because I am currently busy with work and the holidays. However, last night, there was an issue when nobody was online and I unintentionally bothered a moderator who was busy studying. I then realized that I could have dealt with the situation myself if I were already a discussions moderator, and Lostris has also pointed out that I do not need to be on the wiki 24/7 to moderate. I understand that while moderating does include a lot of editing and deleting posts and comments as well as locking posts, a lot of moderating also involves commenting and politely asking all sides of the discussion to be respectful and stay on topic. I have downloaded the Discord and Fandom apps on my phone so that I can more easily access Avatar Wiki and the Discord server when I am not at my computer. I thank you for your consideration!

- Done This is a no-brainer (would be silly to decline after I asked in the first place :-p). You have demonstrated a good grap of the identity of the wiki and the guidelines, as well as being just a generally pleasant person. It also does not hurt that you're filling out a gap in the time moderators are available. I'm glad to have you join our team. Lady Lostris / SOAP 15:17, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
