Wikipedia is an encyclopedia where we work together, and of course we need admins to [[WP:BLOCK|block users]], [[WP:PROTECT|protect pages]] and [[WP:DELETE|delete things]] — but too many users tend to think that adminship seems like a job where you are powerful, the boss, and in control, whilst also you are allowed to act in any way you want, and everybody takes your opinion as right. Because of this, some users only edit Wikipedia in a nice manner just to become an admin, so they can supposedly gain the power they want, themselves forgetting what the encyclopedia itself is for.
