To assist in the [[WP:ADMINH|administration]] of the Wikipedia community and development of the encyclopedia, the community has established a wide range of [[WP:ADMINP|administration pages]]. Many of the pages listed below are static in nature and provide information and guidance on certain aspects of maintaining the project. Other pages are related to [[Wikipedia:Request directory|Wikipedia request departments]] and need continuous attention from volunteers like you to answer or deal with questions and requests. For a listing of ''ongoing discussions'' and ''current requests'', see the [[Wikipedia:Dashboard|dashboard]]. For other useful directories and indexes, see the [[Wikipedia:Directory|directory]].
