Wikiholic

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

A Wikiholic (also Wikiaddict which may or may not be a more severe form of this condition) is subjected to an increasing stream of addictiveness to wiki editing and also may be under a great deal of wikistress, sometimes unknowingly.

Symptoms[edit]

This condition may include many different sort of behaviours.

  1. A typical wikiholic will never have less than 50 edits on any given date.
  2. The F5 key on his/her keyboard is heavily used to the point that it no longer works.

Feel free to add behaviours as they arise.

Prevention[edit]

This condition may go hand in hand with wikiwackos and thus an addict walks a fine line between sanity and insanity. If you feel you are a victim of this condition (or both), then please see the article on Wikivacation.
