The number of leaders of any wiki can vary.  On a [[:Category:Bliki|Bliki]], because it is personal, and not a collaboratory effort, there will be just the one leader.  Depending on the type of hierarchy, and size of a wiki, several leaders may be required.  For a wiki about grassroots movements and grassroots democracy, the hierarchy would be as flat as can be, which makes every active member of such community a leader.  This depends very much on the [[founder]] or group of founders, and their approach.  Either the focus lies on the wiki as a structure, or on the [[:Category:Wiki People|wiki people]] as a community.
