Bottom line: it comes down to having the trust of the community, to not misuse the extra power that comes from having that job. "With great power comes great responsibility."

If you are the person who started the wiki, then you are the community, at least at first. A "community" of 1. You get to make up the rules and decide how things are supposed to be. If other people don't trust you, or don't like the way the community is run, they vote with their feet. And the "community" stays very small... possibly a "community" of 1. There are a lot of wikis that have only 1 person to ever have contributed. A few of them were started by people who have been permanently blocked from this wiki.
