Powers

I assume that with Kevan's powers you mean stuff like editing actual wiki software? Could be helpful if this could be extended to crats, maybe sysops, certainly not normal users considering the damage that can be done. As for sysops powers, maybe giving regular users the ability to move but that would be it. The other exclusive powers like deletion and banning would be open to abuse waaayyy too much.

As for special rights, like being able to vote on A/VB and A/M cases, again no because most cases would devolve into meatpuppet popularity fuckfests. Power needs to be restricted if you want to keep any kind of order on an open public place like this, especially teh web. -- Thadeous Oakley Talk 18:59, 9 June 2011 (BST)
