Thanks. Do you think people will get confused in my community if I decide to use the two terms for different access levels? Or should I use them interchangeably like you?
I found that "admin" is easier to understand, since it's related to similar non-wikipedia terms. Ironically "sysop" is a more accurate description of the job, which is often limited to maintenance: the term "administrator" suggets some power over the other users, while in reality a sysop is just providing services to the others, and accepting responsability for what he/she does.
