  • The icon appears in the "user card":
  • ![screenshot](https://meta.codidact.com/uploads/ozm7vdPu7gepb4UysczgrPSu)
  • It doesn't appear in the post lists (question list, search results, etc), but it doesn't seem like mod/admin status is important to call out *there*, where you aren't yet seeing what the person actually said beyond a title.
  • The latest changes Somewhere Else make some meta sites look like overdone Christmas trees, with big blue and orange markers everywhere including comments. I think we can be more...sedate than that.
  • What I'd *really* like, someday (not a priority now) would be for mods/admins to be able to use the maker when it makes sense but not when they're just acting as ordinary users. That I have special privileges should mean nothing at all when I'm answering a question on Cooking or asking a question on Software Development. Even on metas, mods/admins should be able to weigh in as regular users without unduly influencing the voting. We'll need to think through the design of optional display of these markers, though; it's an ares where the code is probably easier to sort out than the behavioral norms.
