In addition, these ratings are affected by the granting contributor's points. For example, if ExampleUser gains somebody's favor and now has 500 points, JohnDoe's 100% rating is not a 23.8 but a 25, so he has 124 points.

{|
|-
!Points
!Permissions given

*Doesn't this turn Wikipedia into a giant flamewar where people will fight over points and punish people with different opinions by penalising them?

==Miscellanea==

I've held off on allowing [[Wikipedia:Developer|Developer]] privileges to be granted by this. The people who run the server should be able to protect its integrity.
