'''Requests for adminship''', abbreviated as '''RfAs''', are requests for users to be granted [[Halopedia:Administrators|administrator]] positions on Halopedia. As Halopedia's community size and article count grows, more admins may be required to maintain its operation, as well as replace administrators who have become inactive.  
'''Requests for Adminship''', abbreviated as '''RfAs''', are requests for users to be granted [[Halopedia:Administrators|Administrator]] positions on Halopedia. As Halopedia's community size and article count grows, more Admins may be required to maintain its operation, as well as replace administrators who have become inactive.  


Historically, Halopedia did not elect sysops and bureaucrats separately. However, the accepted practice is to now only grant adminship following successful RfAs.

RfAs can be closed early if current Administrators see that the candidate has little chance of success, but only an admin may do this. Requests may also be withdrawn at the request of the nominee ''or'' the person who nominated them.
