I believe the point that Jimbo is making (i will certainly be corrected if wrong :-) is that there is no externally imposed hierarchy. The wiki really did start as a tabula rasa, and all discussions of its hierarchy can be found in its pages.

Thanks geni.
So, to put it crudely, the talk of full transparency and lack of hierarchy is now viewed as just naive idealism that existed at the start of the project, and which has now been abandoned?
No, not at all.
But there isn't full transparency, and there is a hierarchy.
