Different levels may not be necessary as long as people don't abuse the system. Those who don't feel up to making new lujvo can refrain from doing so even if they had the access permissions. The system does present you with this very intimidating message when you want to add a new word: << So. You want to add a valsi to the database. This shouldn't be done lightly. Please check the following: If it is a lujvo, make sure you're using the lowest scoring form of the lujvo. You're not going to get anywhere by using a different form, as the database is periodically swept for noncanonical form lujvo, and they are modified to the appropriate canonical form. (Or removed, and all related data pointed towards the canonical version, if it already exists.) Also ensure that you're adding the word you actually intend to add, and not something odd. I've automatically checked the valsi myself, and have decided that it is of type: lujvo. (Yes, if you try to add an official gismu or cmavo, this will claim that they're experimental, because by the time this goes into production, all official ones will already be entered, and you obviously can't replace an existing one.) If this is correct, and you are ABSOLUTELY SURE, BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT that you want to add this word, then hit the button below: >> > As Wikipedia has demonstrated, allowing mass > involvement creates a positive feedback loop.
