More proof that Wikipedia is now a form of entertainment.

QUOTE(Peter Damian @ Tue 23rd June 2009, 2:29pm)  More proof that Wikipedia is now a form of entertainment. Personally, I find Wikipedia Review far more entertaining. I get the same level of interactivity as Wikipedia, but I'm not expected to be productive here. It's nice. (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/smile.gif) |

QUOTE(MZMcBride @ Tue 23rd June 2009, 7:05pm) I'm not expected to be productive here. I have seen no evidence that you have ever been productive at Wikipedia either, or that (in fact) anyone there is expected to produce anything in particular.QUOTE(Newyorkbrad @ Tue 23rd June 2009, 7:50pm) Actually, a majority of Wikipedia editors stick pretty much to editing articles whenever they happen to be in the mood. They have at most incidental or occasional involvement with the whole administrative apparatus of the site, or the various opportunities it provides for "moaning and groaning." You left out a very salient point, and one which I think you would prefer to ignore: when they do run into the administrative apparatus of the site, the experience tends to convince them to find other pastimes. And yet, the administrativichiks, a caste of which you are a senior member, seem to think that this is not indicative of a problem. |
