From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In my professional career I have worked as an editor for no less than 9 encyclopedia publishing companies and have been fired from each for gross negligence and encyclopedic malfeasance of the highest orders. This has ultimately made me a wanted man in 22 countries and #32 on the Encyclopol's most wanted list. Disavowed by my former employers, stripped of my honours and deprived of the privileges typical of someone in professional encyclopedic editing circles, I am now just some bonehead editing an encyclopedia from an undisclosed location, subsisting on his last hopes that he may recover some dignity and reconcile his past transgressions in an earnest attempt to edit and contribute to the free encyclopedia in his dying years.

Many of the administrators seem like bastards, the type of bastards that will eventually consolidate power by making it difficult to get themselves removed while creating more stringent criteria for new admins to be made, and to be complete dicks, will not subject themselves to any kind re-admittance ritual. Perhaps this has already happened.
Update : Apparently this is exactly what has happened : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Administrators/Archive_3#admin_hegemony
Several administrators were unhappy at my adding of this bit of text to the Administrators page :
"However, administrators existing prior to this raising of standards are not subjected to any kind of formal process to see if they themselves meet the new standard, despite that many of these administrators are instrumental in raising of standards."
There may not be a cabal on wikipedia, but there is definitely a group of people who speak a special jargon and who do not take the time to make their public discussions clear to everyone else, such as in the edit summary for this edit : [1].
And in the end it turns out there is a cabal [2] (Secret mailing list rocks Wikipedia)
Also, sometimes I am a little silly :
