Rights and obligations
In Wikireality there is a realization of a partition of sysop flag on 4 administrative groups, using instead of it. Membership in each one of them allows to perform an actions in determined sphere of project work. List of the technical rights is written on this special page.

Using the extended rights in the cases that not allowed in this rule is not recommended and will lead to taking the technical flag off in case of systematic violations with evil thoughts.
Rules allow to use more than one techical flag in one time, but the more flags you have, the more responsibility you have to take: in case of systematic violations with evil thoughts or using the flag in the cases that not allowed in this rule one or more flags could be speedy taken off after discussion of community or by decision of the Ruling Council.
Administrators are not allowed to wheel warring (use their extended rights for reinstalling an actions, that were reverted by other administrators, doing it three or more times). In case of Administrators' War start, Ruling Council warns the sides of the conflict, in case of continuation it have right to take off technical flags from one or both sides until investigation ends and the final decision will be announce.
