Adminship (also known as the mop) is handed out like free candy here in the majority of cases. People with vague trust generally get admin tools, this is to prevent any silly bureaucracy from setting in, to encourage editors, and to have fastest access to respond to issues that need the tools. This may change as the wiki grows and there's more of a need to be discerning.
What admins are and aren't
Are
It's just a set of tools.
Aren't
Admins do not automatically win in content disputes, and adminship does not imply authority.
Admins are not overlords. Admins found to be abusing the tools will really quickly find themselves losing the mop, and the respect of their fellow EndMyopians
What admins can do (and relevant policies, most of which have not been written yet/copied from Wikpedia yet)
Administrators have the technical ability to perform the following actions:
- Block and unblock user accounts and IP addresses from editing
- Apply, modify, and remove page protection on a particular page to restrict or allow editing, moving, or creation
- Edit fully protected pages
- Delete pages
- Restrict and restore public visibility of information in individual logs and page revisions.
- Override the title blacklist
- Move a page to any desired title
- Perform other special actions as listed at Special:ListGroupRights#sysop
This wiki contains 2 lazy admins.
