The Jargon File Wrote:wheel wars: n. [Stanford University] A period inIn particular, this refers to conflicts between members of the wheel group (who are generally sudoers or have some sort of administrative privileges). The definition is a bit too specific, I'd say it was: "Repeated (mis)use of administrative privileges to block or reverse actions of other administrators of a computing resource, frequently initiated for the purpose of harassment, bragging, or protest."Wheel wars on wikis are really only common on the bigger ones like English Wikipedia and German Wikipedia, where sysops and 'crats have used admin privileges to undo software developer and office actions, especially related to VisualEditor and MediaViewer. Or reverting each other's actions for no reason, etc. I don't think we've had any wheel wars on ATT.

and otherwise wreak havoc, usually at the expense of the lesser
users.
