This has included agreement on a formal code of conduct, clarity of handling of complaints, transparency of channel decision making, and resolution of a number of historic points of confusion and inconsistency. A much clearer channel management structure is also in place, in common with many other IRC channels, comprising a range of checks and balances: |

:* '''Users''' - ''As of 2008-2009'', the channel is managed by the Wikipedia admins who are its users. A high standard of self-regulation is expected, with a low level of lapse expected, and admins are each responsible for maintaining good conduct and standards in the channel. There are some 50 admins in the channel at any given time, themselves communally appointed, so at any time a very wide range of views will be present. |

:* '''Channel operators''' (IRC users who also help manage a channel) - have little special to do except to actively watch and nudge the user or channel if there is an unaddressed lapse in standards (or take action for more serious exceptions). A few '''higher level operators''' can create or remove ops, and can watch independently the quality of the channel ops' own work as a check and balance. This helps ensure that in any issue where an irc complaint is raised, the concerns are addressed fairly, and they also may handle irc related complaints or conduct concerns against channel ops. |

:* '''Disputes and problems''' - If a breach of the channel code arises, channel users themselves calm the debate and remind the admin/s to do better; the aim being a high standard of self-regulation.

Channel management
- Updated as of January 1 2009
The channel has undergone a large number of changes in 2008, to improve transparency. This has included agreement on a formal code of conduct, clarity of handling of complaints, transparency of channel decision making, and resolution of a number of historic points of confusion and inconsistency. A much clearer channel management structure is also in place, in common with many other IRC channels, comprising a range of checks and balances:
- Users - As of 2008-2009, the channel is managed by the Wikipedia admins who are its users. A high standard of self-regulation is expected, with a low level of lapse expected, and admins are each responsible for maintaining good conduct and standards in the channel. There are some 50 admins in the channel at any given time, themselves communally appointed, so at any time a very wide range of views will be present.
- Channel operators (IRC users who also help manage a channel) - have little special to do except to actively watch and nudge the user or channel if there is an unaddressed lapse in standards (or take action for more serious exceptions). A few higher level operators can create or remove ops, and can watch independently the quality of the channel ops' own work as a check and balance. This helps ensure that in any issue where an irc complaint is raised, the concerns are addressed fairly, and they also may handle irc related complaints or conduct concerns against channel ops.
- Disputes and problems - If a breach of the channel code arises, channel users themselves calm the debate and remind the admin/s to do better; the aim being a high standard of self-regulation. If a bigger problem arises it is discussed by the channel operators. Any admin in the channel who wishes to be present (including all parties) are notified so they may attend if they wish. Higher level ops may participate (usually in a more consultative/chair role), but they mainly monitor it for fairness, and for quality of debate and solution. Clear means of independent appeal and complaint exist, both within the channel, to its operators, and outside it.
In addition each year, one or two users are liaisons/overseeing the channel management. To date these have all been arbitrators but this is unlikely to remain so. Their duties are roughly, improving and reinforcing of standards and ethos, ensuring the ops and higher level ops are themselves managing the channel in line with high standards and the best interests of the project, and spotting and resolving conduct issues and other issues not yet addressed. This role was undertaken by FT2 in 2008, and is currently in handover to Wizardman as the volunteer for 2009. Small print: 1) It is a convenience and benefit at this stage rather than a necessity to have an IRC-using arbitrator volunteering for the year. However this is by no means an "arbcom role", the user is not representing Arbcom, it does not usually involve liaison with Arbcom, nor is it essential that it is carried out by an arbitrator long term. 2) No formal standard yet exists for the channel to choose its operators at this time; this will be addressed Q1 2009.
Users and operators
Active operators
(Op, flags +votifA)
|
(Higher level ops, flags +votsriRfA)
|
(Founder, flags +votsriRfAF)
|
Inactive operators
These are users who retain their channel operator access but have not been seen on the channel (or only very seldom) for many months, or are less active and hence perhaps unlikely to be the best first contact if a channel op is needed:
(Op, flags +votifA)
|
(Higher level op, flags +votsriRfA)
|
Complete list of users
These contain the IRC pseudonyms of all users listed as having access to the channel as (on the access list as "Admin" with +iA flags). In many cases these will not match known Wikipedia usernames, either due to technical restrictions or simply personal preference.
A number of these are historic and no longer active; like adminship, access to the channel is not usually lapsed for non-use. Bold indicate non-admin access.
