I concur entirely with Sarah's definition of when a wheel war begins. This culture of "free whacks at the post" has to go. NOBODY is entitled to revert without discussion. 3RR says we're willing to tolerate it for regular editors. Admins are expected to be above this. Any admin who doesn't want to play by this rule is invited to visit [[m:Requests for permissions]].
Slightly OT, I think it makes a lot of sense to clearly tell prospective admins what *obligations* they are subjecting themselves to, as well as what special 'powers' they are gaining, by becoming administrators.
Obligations to: * Learn relevant policy and keep up with policy changes * Restrict what they repost on other sites * Respond to inquiries about their admin actions by other admins? * Obey a 1RR?
