 | This contains material intended to be humorous. It should not be taken seriously or literally. |
It is a truth universally acknowledged that intelligent and otherwise sensible editors and administrators occasionally engage in acts of extreme stupidity.
Based on the fundamental principle that such blatant disregard of sensibility, however unintended, is best punished by humiliation, the village stocks have been built to identify the wiki-idiots in our midst.
Hall of shame
AmiDaniel for the revert the right page award
Who succeeded in reverting vandalism, but posted the reversion to the Main Page instead of the article.
Animum for the lèse majesté award
Self-confession – Was somehow overly impetuous and reverted Jimbo; also accidentally blocked ClueBot.
Ed Poor for the boldness award
On August 1, 2005, Ed Poor, one of Wikipedia's senior editors, boldly decided to delete the entire VFD deletion process. Following a request for arbitration, Ed Poor would resign as a Wikipedia Bureaucrat. See also the Signpost article "Deletion deletion".
Maxim for the "what does this button do?" award
Who managed, on 3 February 2008, to delete the Main Page, because someone told him it could not be done. (confession: [1])
Scientizzle for the baby and bathwater award
Who succeeded in locking the servers for half an hour on 16 January 2008 by deleting the sandbox, as discussed at AN/I and thus achieved various Wikitrouts and barn stars on his/her user page.
