This article is a stub. You can help the IndieWeb wiki by expanding it.
superuser is a privileged user on a site (typically a silo, like Foursquare) that has some admin abilities, sometimes different based on what "level" of superuser the user has been granted or has achieved.
Why
Consider implementing superusers on your site so you can delegate some amount of admin or moderation to others.
How
TBD. See existing examples below and add some brainstorming.
