ISFDB Bureaucrats are ISFDB moderators who also have the Wiki-based "Bureaucrat" flag set on their account. When viewing Moderator-only menu options, they also have access to a special "Bureaucrat" menu. The link to the menu appears in the "Moderator Links" navigation bar on the left. Currently, the Bureaucrat menu lists the following options:

  • Add New Language
  • Add New Award Type
  • Manage Self-Approvers. Lets a bureaucrat enter the name of an ISFDB editor and select whether the editor is a self-approver, i.e. able to approve his or her own submissions. Also lists all current self-approvers.
  • Re-calculate Marque (most viewed) Authors. Identifies the top 2% of most frequently viewed ISFDB authors. The option then sets the "marque" flag for each identified author record. Marque authors are the only authors which can appear on the front page of the ISFDB Web site.
