#'''IP Editors''' - If you are too lazy or incompetent to take 30 seconds to create an account, you are probably too lazy to contribute anything worthwhile except spam or vandalism. You're at work? I think it is the solemn duty of all Wikipedians to inform employers that their employees are milking the clock and wasting valuable company time. Log in and I won't know where you work. You say you live in an oppressive totalitarian regime? It would probably be for the best if you turned off the computer and picked up a rifle. You say that most mainspace edits are derived from IP editors? See point #1. |

This is the user page of WeniWidiWiki. Click here to leave me a message. You can also contact me via Email. I primarily edit articles about the history and growth of new religious movements, neopaganism, reconstructions of ancient religions, and cults.
- Quality not Quantity - With the proliferation of bots, counting user edits is pointless and is hardly an editor's measure of worth. Edit counts do not accurately reflect on the quality of a user's contributions to Wikipedia. Adding punctuation or fixing a typo and clicking 'Save' 50 times when one edit will suffice, craps up the database just as much as 50 instances of vandalism or spam. Saving frequently to avoid losing work is one thing, but a tally of the the number of letters & characters which are still live in the database (minus cut & pasted templates) would be more accurate than padding edit-counts. Or maybe I just have an inferiority complex.
