Yes, and starting with WP:ANI; the Wikipedia is a Stanford Prison
Experiment.

First you divide the users into two groups, we'll call them guards (admins)
and inmates (editors)  and then ensure that the admins are in the minority
so that they HAVE to gang up on the editors. Then we give them unlimited
power over editors and make sure that there's virtually no policies or
guidelines that relate to severity of punishment.
