User talk:Vikings

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dear Vikings,

Please note that sysops do not have any special editing privileges here. In fact, they are required by policy to rigorously separate their roles as editors and sysops; so that, for example, they do not use their special powers to intervene on one side or another in a normal content dispute. Sysop powers are only to be used in a limited number of circumstances, which are set out by policy. Wikipedia is as non-hierarchical as we can make it. Please appeal to the community as a whole and not to the sysop/admins.

You might want to join the Wikipedia-L mailing list to discuss this with the community.

It's nice of you to think that we will take dictation from you, but I doubt you will find many of us eager to do so. -- Zoe

To play devil's advocate, they said they will make suggestions, not dictats.Theresa knott 09:46 1 Jun 2003 (UTC)

My, aren't we all welcoming today? ;-)
