If we do what we know of for speed (except 517 which was weird), Zelena is amongst the fastest spell casters. For speed, it tends to go: Zelena, Rumple, Emma, Regina amonst the main crew.

If we go for power: it's Rumple, Emma, Zelena, Regina

If we go for versatility: it would be hard to tell unless we go by feats. By feats, it's Regina, Zelena, Emma, Rumple. By statements and magical knowledge this wouldn't be the case as it would be: Rumple, Zelena, Regina, Emma.

So, with just those four it would be in an overall tier list:  Rumple, Zelena, Emma, Regina roughly speaking. With a whole cast of characters, it would get hard as some lack feats and others have superb feats.

Example: Merlin and the Dark One should be equals, but Merlin turned a desert region into a lush forest. Noone in this show comes close to that, especially not any Dark One. They are equal in stated power, but they don't ever do much. Rumple says that he doesn't tend to do showy things and he has less feats that Regina. I mean as far as we've seen, Regina defeated Pan, put a protection spell that Pan couldn't get pass, and trapped the shadow in the sail and meanwhile Rumple was sitting in a box, lol. Come on, you guys are overestimating Emma, ​​as I said before she does not currently have magical knowledge and versatility, therefore it is behind many wizards (even with more raw power). for example if it were to face the maleficent what she would do (assuming the achievements shown by she only with her magic without the dark one are explosions of light, rays, teleportation, and a basic telekinesis), maleficent probably put her to sleep. Zelena, regina, cora, ingrid, amara, jafar, rumple all end up paralyzing, transmuting and knocking her.

What about Indrid, she is so powerful (but limited), if she tried to freeze everything as she did in Arendelle is only regina teleporting herself, paralyze ingrid or make a shield in front of her (because that freezing is gradual is not instant like paralization, and we did not see her doing it in any wizard), and do not be amazed at this power of Indrid was told that regina could leave all Storybrook in ash (evidenced that when she causes a slight earthquake in the building in 3x13), and maleficent could also do great things, she put everyone to sleep throughout Storybrook in 4x17, just do not think that ingrid could beat cora, regina, maleficent or zelena that are more powerful than her in total.

What about Peter Pan, I agree with Eskaver, he is very powerful but he is much more crude than skilled. so  i put rumple slightly above it
