WikiIndex:Consensus
Consensus is a fundamental tenet of virtually all wiki sites which rely on editing from a community of people. Consensus is arrived at here on WikiIndex through discussion, in the first instance on the talk page of individual articles. There is a hierarchy on this site for technical and legal reasons, but decision-making is strongly encouraged through our own community input. In practice, this can sometimes be difficult to achieve, especially when the community is small or many members are inactive.
The WikiIndex.org domain name is owned by Raymond King, aka Ray King, who also edits under his username Rathbone. King also provides the hosting service and the backup data. The people who work for Raymond King have the backend access to the server. The actual content of this WikiIndex wiki site is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 unported licence, and as such is owned by its contributing authors. Sysops, correctly known as administrators, are appointed by bureaucrats. Any WikiIndex sysop can take an action, such as blocking and / or banning a users account or deleting an article. If no other sysop reverses the action, then their decision stands. Sysops making contentious actions can be discussed at the WikiIndex:Community portal. If the majority of the community finds these actions unacceptable, other sysops can undo them, or that person may have their rights modified.
