{{WIP}}Every registered User of the Lexicanum is an '''Editor''' as he/she has the tools at his/her disposal to ''edit'' pages, articles and files. ==Is there a hierarchy of Editors?==Not all ''Editors'' have access to the same range of technical tools available in the Lexicanum wiki. Unfortunately it is necessary to limit the access to ''certain'' tools that are not needed in a daily context and for the "normal" tasks involved in creating or editting an article. The reason for this is simple: If unintentionally (or in some cases intentionally) used these tools can be very destructive. So for obvious reasons it is not possible or recommended to grant general access to them. The "hierarchy" of access rights is therefore as follows (in ascending order):*''Editors''**[[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:Administrators|Administrators]]***[[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:Bureaucrats|Bureaucrats]] (also known as ''Super-Administrators'') This is a '''technical hierarchy'''. It does explicitly ''not mean'' that a "normal" Editor's voice and opinion is ''per se'' "worth less" than the one of an ''Administrator'' or ''Bureaucrats''. We do try to listen to everybody and make decisions as transparent as possible. However every Editor should also have no illusions that when push comes to shove in the end it is the [[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:Administrators|Administrators]] and [[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:Bureaucrats|Bureaucrats]] who have the final say on issues. The Lexicanum was never designed to function as a grassroots democracy, probably the best way to describe the Lexicanum is calling it a top-down [[Wikipedia:Technocracy|Technocracy]]. ==Who can an Editor turn to in case of problems?==In case any Editor encounters problems he/she should contact an [[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:Administrators|Administrator]]. ==See also==*[[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:Help|Lexicanum:Help]]
