We are assigned the wikis we will be managing. The assignments are semi-random, but we can trade wikis with similar popularity between managers if we want to manage one specifically. We were chosen by Fandom from among long-time admins who have made a significant amount of contributions and are well-experienced with wiki editing, not just anyone can become a Wiki Manager.

Fandom wants to be more interactive with their local admins, so all wikis that fall under the gaming umbrella will be getting Wiki Managers. The purpose of Wiki Managers is to assist the community and admins, we are not here to do the job of admins or bureaucrats or tell the wiki how it should be run.

Hopefully that clears up your concerns. If you have any other questions, let me know and I will answer as best as I can.
