A simple wiki hierarchy would be from most rights to fewest: So a bureaucrat can do everything an administrator can do. No, no. Most of the time Bureaucrats are Admins. Those that are not can make themselves Admins, but the two user rights groups are very different separately. (Admins actually have more rights than Bureaucrats.) Note User blog:Poseidon133/What is the Difference between Admin and Bearucrat.
 * 1) bureaucrat: has the ability to give/take administrator rights, has all administrator rights, has rollback rights.
 * 2) administrator: has administrator and rollback rights.
 * 3) rollback user: has rollback rights
 * 4) autoconfirmed user: has no special rights (save for the ability to edit some pages that may be protected against anonymous editing)
