#REDIRECT [[wiki management]]
'''Wiki Management''' may require [[Wiki Editor]] and [[Wiki Lawyer]] to guide [[Wiki Sysop]] behaviour.  Left on their own they tend to be [[little tin god]]s - each hoping to grow up to be [[GodKing]].  This shouldn't be encouraged.
 
Good sysops are disposable, period.  Good editors are not.  And good lawyers can keep your project going when it otherwise would be flushed down the toilet.
 
Wiki management problems include:
 
*knowing when [[written consensus]] is possible, e.g. using [[troll bridge]] approach, and when it's just going to continue as [[edit war]] forever no matter what, i.e. it is a [[Consumerium:political dispute]] or something that reflects a real world POV difference.
 
*knowing when [[soft security]] can't apply, e.g. definition of [[Consumerium:vandalism]].
 
*balancing [[Consumerium:contributor]] vs. [[Consumerium:editor]] balances of power.
 
*picking [[wiki software]] that actually makes it easy to do the above.
