Sysops, also written as SysOps; a shortened portmanteau of 'system operators' – of a wiki, are also known as administrators (usually shortened to admins for brevity). Sysops can perform administrative functions that regular user account holders cannot. Sysops can block difficult people or unblock them, and can delete spam or vandalism. Sysops can also protect pages, unprotect them and edit protected pages.
All wiki using the MediaWiki software on the internet post a full list of current Sysops of that wiki (unless they specifically choose to withold that information). Other wiki engines either don't have easy ways to publicly see a lists of Sysops or the wiki is beautifully simple and doesn't need that role.
