Unfortunately it is necessary to limit the access to ''certain sets of powerful '' tools that are not used needed in a daily context and for the "normal " tasks involved in creating or editing an article-creation and editing. Access to The reason for this is simple: If unintentionally (or in some cases intentionally) used these tools can be very destructive. So for obvious reasons it is restricted not possible or recommended to avoid potential misuse and damage - intentional or unintentional - grant generalized access to the wikithem.

==Is there a hierarchy of Editors?==
The "hierarchy" of access rights is therefore as follows (in ascending order):*''Editors''**[[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:BureaucratsAdministrators|BureaucratsAdministrators]] (a.k.a. ''Super-Administrators'') maintain the site itself and have the highest authority.***[[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:AdministratorsBureaucrats|AdministratorsBureaucrats]] moderate site content and resolve differences between editors.(also known as ''Super-Administrators'')
==Who can an Editor turn to with a problemin case of problems?==* Contact In case any Editor encounters problems he/she should contact an [[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:Administrators|Administrator]].
