W I K I P E D I A :
GOVERNMENT HEALTH WARNINGS

Editing Wikipedia is highly addictive, don't start
quitting will improve your health

Editing Wikipedia for prolong periods
will reduce blood flow & causes impotence

Editing Wikipedia deprives your children

Wikipedia is harmful to your health
avoid excessive editing


And, sticking on topic to Robert Palmer, this 'moar song parody', sure did not need a lot of work. (... It's funny but when I first saw this video as a kid, I never realised that the women were not actually playing any of their instruments. I wonder how that happened.).
    Addicted To Jimbo's Organ

    The lights are on, but you’re not home
    your mind is, not your own
    your hands sweats, your body shakes
    another edit is what it takes

    You can’t sleep, you can’t eat
    there’s no doubt, you’re in deep
    your mother's basement, has become your world
    around Jimbo's finger, you are curled

    whoa, you like to think that you know the stuff you write, oh yeah
    it’s closer to the truth to say you haven't a clue,
    you know you only copy and paste it, you’re addicted to Wikipedia

    you see the refs, but you can’t read
    your mind is running at a different speed
    you need a trick to win, a policy to find
    another edit and the topic’ll be mine, a POV mind

    you can’t be saved
    admin status, is all you crave
    it'll take 20,000 edits, for you its true
    you don’t mind, if you do

    whoa, you like to think that you know the stuff you write, oh yeah
    it’s closer to the truth to say you haven't a clue,
    you know you only copy and paste it, you’re addicted to Wikipedia

    Might as well face it, you’re addicted to editing
    Might as well face it, you’re addicted to editing
    Might as well face it, you’re addicted to editing
    Might as well face it, you’re addicted to editing
    Might as well face it, you’re addicted to editing

    you edit on, but you’re still not done
    someone else, reverts them all
    your anger rises, sockpuppet you call
    another user blocked, it all part of the fun

    whoa, you like to think that you know the stuff you write, oh yeah
    it’s closer to the truth to say you haven't a clue,
    you know you only copy and paste it, you’re addicted to Wikipedia

    Might as well face it, you’re addicted to editing

Raising the tone a little: Parvus error in principio magnus est in fine. A medieval maxim, taken from Aristotle. Rough translation, "What was a small error in the beginning turns into a whopping great bastard at the end".
