Most wheel wars are not ended by jimbo intervention. With the current setup an admin is enough to stop a deletion spree (Just sit on the block page reblocking them every few seconds). In the past deadmining has generaly fallen to devs and perhaps stewards (I think there was a case over at the hebrew wikipedia).
In terms of realism welcomeing newbies was overstated in importance and takeing down vandals understated.
Rouge admin could make an interesting RPG. Perhaps someone familia with GURPS could come up with something.

It's written in Common Lisp, {{sofixit}}.
That gives me an idea -- wikiLISP
like Wikipedia, but the content is lisp
with a tab saying 'compile now' which compiles the current code and downloads to you an .exe
problems? Of course. But who cares?
