You can either try to Taylorise the process of trusting people, or you can get in people you trust. Sysadmins *could* do any destructive thing they want. But they pretty much *don't*. I wonder why that is.
Most of them do not do anything wrong because anything they do can be easily seen by ANYONE (sysops and non sysops). And aside from deleting an image, everything they do can be reverted. If they block, someone else can unblock If they delete a page, someone else can undelete If they protect a page, someone else can unprotect
I am not talking about Wiki admins/sysops, I mean the people who run the actual servers, i.e. [[system administrator]]s.
