Mav proposition : a 6 level of power, depending on
each wikipedia decision
An Elite:
* Dictator-for-life: Jimbo Wales (controls URLs,
bandwidth, machines; sets policy)
* Developers: can delete or alter any page, any
time, without a trace! same for blocking, promoting,
renaming users)
* Upper sysops: can delete pages or protect them
from the lower classes; can see everyone IP's, block
IP's of anyone.
La bourgeoisie
* Lowers sysops: can delete pages or protect them
from the lower classes; can block IP's of anonymous
only. Don't see users IP.
> A Lower-class:
> * Signed-in users - cannot be blocked, except by a

> * Anonymous (IP) users - can be blocked by any sysop
Eh? I don't remember calling for two types of sysops. I've only advocated for
sysops to have the ability to block vandals who have happened to log-in. The
particular method by which I proposed this was simple; allow sysops the
ability to see the IPs of logged-in users.
I still think this is the best solution. Perhaps our previous disagreement was
based on the above misunderstanding? I would have opposed a two-level sysop
scheme too.
