Vanyar > Noldor?

I don't know whether the Vanyar are considered greater than the others or not, but their king was considered king of all Elves, by the Elves themselves:

...but Ingwë was ever held the High King of all the Elves.

and also:

...Ingwë, the most high lord of all the Elvish race. He entered into Valinor and sits at the feet of the Powers,and all Elves revere his name.
