inner core consists of roughly 1,700 administrators who possess the
ability to reject edits, lock down pages from further editing, and
deem entire entries unworthy. But the real power lies in the
Wikipedian equivalent of the College of Cardinals -- some 200 to 300
super-administrators who may banish transgressors for life and chart
the wiki's strategy and direction..."
