Aww, sorry Will! I completely forgot.
Also, sorry weather spotter. I'd done your star before, but I messed up when I did so and set you to something completely different instead of what I meant to, aka the "red star" usergroup.
Furthermore, stickers are in the mail.
If I've missed anything for anyone else, let me know, since it's entirely possible in my current hustle to move again.

Thanks for getting right to it!
Since I am moderating the Wiki, do I get a green star? If not I am ok with my red one.

No, the wiki is a separate thing. Normally, I would say yes, because you're performing that same, much-needed and -loved function our forum mods do, but the green star is really attached to the usergroup that gives permissions over the forum part of the site, so it's not really divorceable from those functions. A bit of a pain, but there you have it.
The wiki pages should note your status as moderator, correct?

I do not know, I just volunteered, and MetroMPG gave me the nod to do it. I am still not sure what (if anything) has changed.

Thanks, do you have a list of what a mod is suppose to do? I figure on these:
Answer questions
keep an eye on things
edit as needed
promote the site + wiki
remove bad info posted on the wiki (use sparingly)
help keep thinks neat and orderly
what else?

That sounds about right. It's basically the responsibility of having to deal with annoying things with the reward of being able to deal with annoying things, if you know what I mean.
In other words, I think your list pretty much sums things up. Though you could add "ban spammers"

It's POWER he wants!!! First it was the wikis, now the forums, by next year he'll ban all the other mods.

ha ha you figured it out 
No I am joking, I have found that power = responsibility and those two should balance. I just like to help people by fixing things behind the seens (that is what I got my degree in).
