Admin only editing of

comes to editing we are all equal.
I'm not sure I agree here. There is a bar to entry for admins, and it
is reasonable to require, at least in the short term, that we allow
editing only by trusted individuals. Protection is a blunt instrument
and certainly excludes many highly trustworthy individuals, but it
does exclude most of those likely to perpetuate the problem. Hopefully
if the clarification Jimbo gave is taken to heart, the protection
period can be reduced as we fix the articles.

The divide between editors and admins should be as small small as
posible. At the moment most of the admin powers are ah procedural.
They are not really ment to be related to content. I would not like to
see that change. There are too many traps on that path.
