Want to create a sociopolitical or power ranking based on a system already made. Not sure how to go about it. Any idea?
Known systems are:
Grading Systems:
SABCDEF
SSS SS S A B C D E F
A B C D F
A B C D
.
Greek Letter System
Alpha, Beta,Gamma, Delta, epsilon. Zeta. Eta .theta. iota. Kappa. Lambda . Mu. Nu.omnicron. xi. Pi. Rho. Sigma. Tau. Upsilon. Chi. Psi. Omega.

For ABO and werewolves and personality
Zeta > Sigma > Alpha or Sigma > Zeta & Alpha
Zeta > Beta / Beta = Lambda
Gamma > Delta / Gamma = Delta
Delta > Gamma > Omega
Epsilon > Zeta > Iota > Kappa > Omega always last every hierachy

?????

but wolves' personality was disproved by the same person who created it.

It would depend on what exactly it's measuring, tbh.

You could go the JoJo route of "Stand rankings", where you have an average after considering various factors like duration/power/creativity/burst, etc. But that's more of a superpower ranking.

Perhaps you should give more context?
Example1:

Grade A Disaster
B Class Warrior
First Class Private
S Ranked Assassin
SS ranked mission classified

Something like that.

I was talking about why you need it? Is it a general interest for future references? Or do you want it for your story? If it's the latter, describe what you will rank in your novel.

Well... disasters in the real world have their own scale of measurement (earthquakes, tornadoes, floods), so having a single system would be problematic, as an earthquake hits out of nowhere unlike a tornadoe that you can see coming.

Military rankings are easy, just use what's already available, no need to reinvent the wheel and make readers learn and remember something.

One punch man's ranking sucks mainly b/c it's satyre, so that S Rank 'whatever' doesn't really make sense, as it's an arbitrary label.

Missions could be easier to classify when considering the individual taking them. A C-rank mission to kill goblins could become SSSSSSSSS+ to a five year old healer, for example.

Both. Mainly for social status, political influence, economic influence, power level, degree of physical damage on the entire world system. In short, a caste system mostly based on impact, i.e. threat.

Ranking for social status already exists in aristocracy ranking. If you even need a ranking for social status, it means there is some kind of nobility system, cause otherwise, people are equal. If there is nobility, you don't need any political influence ranking cause nobles are politics. Otherwise, you can simply look at different titles of public officials and make a ranking out of it.
