Roles
There are a variety of roles described here. Since roles are largely conceptual, there is no limit to what roles you may ascribe yourself or be given.
- Bureaucratic red tape: The duties of this role are bureaucratic. This role is limited to those in the bureaucrat and sysop right groups.
- Editor: The duties of this role are to curate and maintain content articles and templates on the wiki. Since everyone can edit, there is no limit to who is an editor. However, this is a right group, editor, which provides some additional permissions to aid in the mod documentation process. There are too many editors to list here.
- Translator: The duties of this role are to translate content into non-English languages. Since everyone can translate, there is no limit to who is a translator. Translation projects are listed at Project:TP.
- Wiki singer: This role is for those who entertain the community by singing on Discord, Teamspeak, and other VoIP services.
- Web developer: The duties of this role is to maintain our JavaScript and CSS primarily, as other web development is handled by Gamepedia.

- Mod version updater: The duty of this role is to update the mod versions listed on mod articles in real-time (as they are released).

Staff legacy
Before 2017, there was a staff system, in which people were promoted through the wiki hierarchy democratically. Staff were responsible for helping new users, watching for vandalism, etc. However, since this role can easily be filled, in most cases, by the community without the need for democratic leadership and leader appointment, this has been dissolved.
Former staff list
This list is kept for historical purposes. It lists everyone who was previously considered staff. People who were staff, but were de-staffed as a result of the group overhaul (which dissolved the staff system, as mentioned above) are not listed here.
This list is no longer maintained as of the group overhaul of 2017.
