Wikitechnocracy

Wikitechnocracy advocates All The Tropes run with power and authority being vested in technical experts in their respective fields. It favors centralized, sometimes wikihierarchical leadership rather than evolution of standards through a decentralized, wikidynamist process of spontaneous order.

One of the arguments for wikitechnocracy is that it takes time for the community to reach consensus, and in the meantime progress is held up. Sometimes, the community may never reach consensus, and the system permanently stagnates on that issue, so on technical issues, those who have the best knowledge of wiki coding and design should be able to make progress on issues that would otherwise stagnate if left entirely to the lay community, which may not entirely have tyhe best ideas or be unable to agree as to the best conclusion on how to solve technical issues on All The Tropes.
