{{Shortcut|WP:RFA42}}

== Trust ==
Candidates must have the trust of the community. They are commonly [[WP:Civility|well-mannered]], show [[WP:CLUE|good judgement]], and ideally have a clean [[RetroWikipedia:Blocking policy|block]] log, or at least one that has been clean for over a year. Additionally, editors must remain non-biased when adding or deleting RetroWikipedia content.

== Experience ==
Successful candidates usually have thousands of edits and plenty of experience, including in one or two areas where they are ready to use the administrator tools.

== Content creation ==
The minimum expectation for new administrators is that they will have added some reliably sourced content to English RetroWikipedia. Although writing that meets [[RetroWikipedia:Good articles|good article]] or [[RetroWikipedia:Featured articles|featured article]] standards is excellent, other forms of high-quality contributions can also demonstrate an understanding of the effort required to write mainspace articles in collaboration with others.
