419:(as of 30 June 2013). Folks at the Wikimedia Foundation please take note: I'm sure that you have access to all sorts of mindless stats., but the higher percentages of vandalism, articles needing copyediting and references (those that actually have tags on them...) and, I'm willing to bet, the amount of relative time spent by admins arguing at the CafΓ© and blocking and/or expulsing other admins or veteran users, the result of heavy-handed lobbying, together with the relative time spent in basic maintenance tasks, including ARV, and until an outside, i.e., neutral & international, "auditing team" whose only interest is the good of the project itself, gets sent in there to sort it out, Knowledge in Spanish will not reach its corresponding level of recognition among Spanish-speaking users of the Internet. 652:, that allow us to revert up to around 18 bad edits a minute (which means actually reviewing, and accepting as good, many more edits in that same space of time), those of us who get a kick out of copy-editing know that we can easily spend half an hour going over a particularly badly written article with a fine-tooth comb and only have one edit to show for it. Other factors involved in edit counts include article creation (one edit, regardless of length), creating a wikitable (one edit, regardless of complexity), a reply in an edit war (regardless of complexity and political correctness), and so on. Moreover, the number of bytes that appear for each edit when reviewing an article's history page, i.e., plus or minus figures, do not necessarily reflect the actual effort made in improving an article. 628:. Many editors patrol new pages from the β€œfront”, i.e., the most-recently created pages. However, there's a pretty humongous backlog of articles that were created up to a month ago which, if they don't get revised in time, simply slip into the mainstream encyclopaedia without having been subject to that minimum review which is so desirable. In other words, it's a race against time to try and ensure that as many pages as possible get at least a quick going-over. The most seriously deficient pages will need more work done on 'em, but others can be accepted into the fold with nothing more than a simple tag which sends 'em off into categories that other editors check out. Reason for which, once again, I'd like to invite y'all to 729:
always be an "only" warning. I'm well aware that there is a school of thought that considers "boys will be boys" and that vandals can be "converted" if treated kindly (as I mention elsewhere, I'm "proud" to have done so on more than one occasion, and at least one of those editors went on to become an admin). However, my experience tells me that most vandals' attempts to beat the system are more effectively dealt with if nipped in the bud within seconds. Precisely one of the strengths of Knowledge – that anyone can edit here – is also one of its weaknesses. One thing is that the information it contains is open to discussion and another is that it has been vandalised.
388:) and having been able, on several occasions, to directly benefit from content I found here and applying it in my work, I finally cottoned on to the fact that I could actually participate in helping to build this thing up. Eschewing, as directly childish, the idea of having a username, I operated as an IP for a couple of years, only copyediting, until someone, somewhere - I can't remember the exact details, but it'll come back to me one day – left me a welcome template inviting me to register. After having originally rejected the idea, it eventually grew on me and, by 692:) and the effect of reading on a screen as opposed to the printed page, but what little I have had access to clearly points to the need for shorter paragraphs, and fewer of them. I take that to mean that articles should be short enough to read in screen-sized chunks, without the need for too much scrolling, and with multiple links to other, related main articles. A lengthy article does not necessarily mean more – or better – information. I'm a great "believer" in creating sub-articles to de-clutter main articles. A good example is 57: 220: 293: 832:
and widespread – than casual onlookers might, at first, perceive. I'm proud of having "helped" several vandals "reform" and become constructive editors – and in one case, an admin. But few things are more tiresome than having to deal with self-righteous editors who tear their hair when someone points out that their edit does not comply with Knowledge policies, and stubbornly insist on dragging the issue out to the nth degree.
733:
many, are indeed smarter than the rest of us. But so what? Again, it never c. to amaze me that there are people out there who are prepared to waste their time and mental energy destructively. Sadly, I have no doubt that most of whom are editors and even admins who have been blocked at some stage and are able to return using a different IP, intent on doing as much damage as possible.
882: 549:), and numerous exhortations pasted all over the place to add references to reliable sources, I never cease to be amazed by the number of editors – and I don't just mean those who arrived a moment ago and are still learning the ropes – who add stuff here without providing said refs. Outside of Knowledge (there is a real world, or rather, real 19:"But I have three precious things which I prize and hold fast. The first is gentleness; the second is economy; and the third is shrinking from taking precedence of others. With that gentleness I can be bold; with that economy I can be liberal; shrinking from taking precedence of others, I can become a vessel of the highest honour." – The 621:
row and make quick reversions, which is when, in passing, one also notices other issues on that page that need attending. Some dilemma! Does one stay at the page and try to clean up some minor point or does one head off to clean up – often involving some major nastiness – after that pesky vandal? Solution: slap a tag on it and tally-ho!
828:), spend much time tweaking and perfecting those articles to ensure that this encyclopedia can enjoy a certain amount of - growing – credibility, even if their work goes largely unnoticed. And then there's a smaller group of users who, like myself, also choose to keep watch over recent changes and to fight against vandalism. 578:
able to revert that ever-so-subtle bad faith edit – having had access to the referenced source – and having to AGF and simply leave it there, certain that the user, who has already made half a dozen such edits in quick succession has scored yet again. All because the original text cannot be easily verified...

but those of us who've been around here for a while know who they are, and greatly appreciate their presence. My relatively high Knowledge profile notwithstanding, believe it or not, I am, at heart, a WikiGnome myself... it's just that I'm still some way off from reaching Lao-tzu's third premise (see above).
835:
So, what am I getting at with the above? Simply that I fully understand those of you who prefer to keep that low profile, probably based on having already burnt yer fingers trying to be reasonable when dealing with others over the Internet. However, if you don't already have your work cut out keeping
728:
However, I have zero tolerance for sexist and racist comments (and insults in general) – this is an encyclopaedia, not the back streets of the dodgy neighbourhood I grew up in – and my first warning for obvious and malign vandalism of that kind, for which no assumption of good faith is required, will
724:
I have a surprisingly high capacity for assuming good faith, e.g., with those one-off edits that say "hello" and which are basically tests, or those in which folks tell the world how much they love someone or the latest teen pop idol, and a slightly lower tolerance level for the "poo, fart & pee"
577:
I realise that this may not be an issue for the folk from academia who spend much of their time, in collaboration with other like-minded editors, perfecting articles on subjects they know about, but for those of us who move around Knowledge fighting vandalism, there's a great difference between being

This latter task is, by its very nature, conflictive, at least. And the cause of misunderstanding, at best. And, unfortunately, editors who make good faith edits may, occasionally, get caught up in the crossfire, and find their edits reverted by mistake. Vandalism at Knowledge is much more complex –

On the other hand, while it's clear that many of you out there are pretty sociable and participate in the exchange of barnstars, etc., please forgive me if I don't partake in such expressions of goodwill. Noblesse oblige means that I'll thank you if you see fit to award me with summat, but please be

Administrators who use Knowledge-related IRC channels are reminded that, while these channels have legitimate purposes, discussing an issue on IRC necessarily excludes those editors who do not use IRC from the discussion (and excludes all non-administrators from the discussion ), and therefore, such

Although I really wish I could spend more quality time sharing my wide-ranging knowledge in many areas ☺ – duly accompanied by the references from reliable and independent sources – and even create more articles, much of my time here at Knowledge is unfortunately taken up reverting mere vandalism.

One of the pet hates of these editors seems to be tagging, that is, placing tags on pages that need improving. Other than that they felt mortally offended when someone, at some stage, tagged an article created by them, and they've let the rancour set in, I just don't see why they get their knickers
600:
It's clear-cut. Either an article is perfect (!) or it ain't. If it ain't, fix it… or, if circumstances don't permit, slap a tag on it so that a) other editors can fix it or, b) innocent readers – who do not yet understand how Knowledge works and/or are blissfully unaware of the humongous amount of

While the "poo, fart & pee" type makes up most of the vandalism – it never ceases to amaze me how boringly predictable the vast majority of vandals are – the bane of Knowledge are really the trolls, flamers, etc., and all the others who think they're smarter than anyone else. Some of them, not

As I mention elsewhere, one of the banes of Knowledge is the self-righteous editor, the type who likes to lecture others and point his/her finger at them, forgetting the wonderful English saying β€œwhen you point your finger at someone, don't forget there are three more pointing back at you”.

see no advantage in being one myself. The basic maintenance and antivandalism stuff that I do here require no special tools other than those available to all, such as Twinkle and STiki, and the other technical stuff that admins have to do really doesn't appeal to me.
564:
There seems to be a terrible bias among some editors that some sort of random speculative "I heard it somewhere" pseudo information is to be tagged with a "needs a cite" tag. Wrong. It should be removed, aggressively, unless it can be sourced.
