There are just tons and tons of wikipedia administrators who have OCD – obsessive compulsive disorder, some may have the disorder, some may have the OCD personality which is quite different than the disorder.
Anyway, in case you don’t know, once an OCD administrator is hooked on you, anything you write or edit, s/he will constantly watch you. That could cause a lot of problems, because those OCD administrators have the power to ban you, revert anything you edit, and they will call anything you write or edit as “vandalism,” revert them or delete them. And there is nothing you can do about it. And sometimes they will even go crazy, they will simply protect the article that you edit, so no one can write anything even if it is a vandalized version.
So here are some simple things to avoid those OCD patients.
Ideally, you have a dynamic IP internet connection. www.whatismyip.com, it will show your ip address, if it remains the same every time you get on the internet even after you turn off the modem, that means you don’t have dynamic IP.
1. You should edit articles without signing on a wikipedia account, so when those OCD administrators click on you IP and they can only find out all the articles that you edited on that particular day. That way, they won’t be able to revert everything you have ever edited. They can only revert the articles that you have edited with that particular IP.
Also it is hard for them to remember all the digits in the IP address, therefore, it would be hard for them to talk among other OCD administrators. Can you image them talking like this “so 280.283.28.0 is back again,” the other one will say, “oh, yea 280.283.28.2 could be the same person.”
You just don’t know what those OCD patients are capable of, when they are in the OCD mood, they will just revert everything, literally everything. Even if that means they will have to spend hours on doing that, after all, wikipedia is their social life. It doesn’t matter to them if they reverted the vandalized version or not, when they have gone crazy, they just want to release their compulsive disorder.
2. You should sign on a new account, only when you want to create a new article. And try not to use any actual words in your user name, so the OCD administrators will have a hard time to remember them.
You should never enter your email when you sign on a new account, you don’t know what they will do with your email, and with that email, they can probably search it online, and find out all the things that you have done online.
3. When you create new articles, don’t use the same user ID over and over. Create a new account after you have created a few new articles. So those OCD administrators won’t be able to track all the articles you have done, so they can’t revert everything.
There is no need to feel bad about creating new accounts, because those OCD administrators do that all the time. They have those fake accounts that are used only to piss off certain people. So when you check out the contribution lists, you will find out that those accounts have minimal activities. So you see, there is no need to feel bad about what you are doing, wikipedia has way too many OCD administrators with double, triple, even numerous accounts.
4. Try to edit any articles only once. Don’t edit, save, edit and save many times all in one day. That attracts OCD administrators. If they don’t like what they see, they will revert the article all the way back to where you started, call anything you wrote as “vandalism”, even if the thing that they reverted are the actual vandalized version. That is very typical for all the OCD administrators.
5. If unfortunately, an OCD administrators got hooked on you and the articles that you edited, just let them do whatever that satisfy their compulsions. You should just remember that article name, and wait it for a month or two. By then, the OCD administrators will find some new obsessions to deal with, and then you can come back and do whatever you want with that article. Be sure to use a new account only for that particular article that you want to edit.
6.For people who don’t have dynamic IP, one thing that you can do is to only edit articles when you are sign on with a wikipedia account. Because if you have pissed off one of the OCD administrators, they will simply ban your IP. And from then on, you won’t be able to do anything unless you change your internet provider or move to a new place with a new internet connection, or use a proxy which is a little complicated to write it in this article. Be sure to get a new user name after a while, so your entire history won’t be exposed. Because some crazy OCD administrators will actually study your entire log history, and can revert everything that you have ever written!
7. Don’t try to edit one article all at once. That way, you can avoid OCD administrators’ attention. Edit something, then wait till someone else add their things in there. That means your edition is now confirmed, then you can write something new.
8. At last, if those crazy OCD administrators actually lock the articles that you want to edit, don’t worry. Wait for a few days, then create a new account. Use a different name for that article. For example, if the original article name is “Suzy’s doll,” you can create a new article called “Doll of Suzy,” or “Suzy’s only doll,” etc. Most of the time, even if you just add a single comma, period, or some capital letters, wikipedia’s computers will consider them as new articles. Simply copy whatever you wrote in the original article, and save it. There you go, mission is accomplished. let those crazy administrators watch those original articles like some silly dogs that they are. Now your version of article is published for the whole world to see.
Be sure never to use that account again. Create another account to add another new article. So those wikipedia OCD patients won’t go after you like maniacs.
Those OCD patients are not there to edit articles, they are just there to piss people off. They would rather delete anything useful than keeping the useful things that you wrote. They get enormously “happy” when they “detect” anything “unusual” over any articles that they have been “watching.” That means they can abuse their power again. So sometimes the best way is to avoid those patients all together, just create the same article with another new name. simple and easy.
