Just some ramblings -- not sure we need another silly page, so I'm hijacking this empty talk page.

I have a complaint. I do NOT like that prayer. You don't for things like that in Christianity. --[[User:Thebigfan2|User:Thebigfan]] ([[User talk:Thebigfan2|talk]]) 20:39, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

A new Wikipedian recently wrote "I'm having a great time." This struck me. "You're in phase 2" I thought. So here are the phases of descent into Wikipediholism. They're more relevant than the 12-step programme ''out'' of Wikipediholism, because, let's face it, who has ever made it out willingly?

# Inquiry -- "what's this strange place?"
# Discovery -- "I'm having a great time"
# Enthusiasm
# Dependency
# Realising your previous lifestyle of bicycling, dinner with friends, seeing the sun and doing laundry was like being a caterpillar, and that you are now a free-flying wikimoth.
# Resignation to the fact that you now belong, body & soul to the Wikipedia, and are forever flying into the irresistible flame of the wikicandle.

I'm going to move this to meta. Objections? [[User:MyRedDice|Martin]] 23:51 18 Jul 2003 (UTC)

: Yes. While it's a silly page, it's linked to a lot of other silly pages, and moving just this one to Meta doesn't seem like a good idea, and it's clear that many of the other ones refer specifically to the English wiki. So I think the whole bundle should stay here. --[[User:Eloquence|Eloquence]] 23:53 18 Jul 2003 (UTC)

:: I was just going to move this and the "in denial" list, and maybe the test slightly later. They're mostly linked in user pages and talk pages - I'm happy to fix those to point directly at meta. I thought it'd go nicely with [[meta:Wikipedians by favourite color]] and similar lists. Checking the links back they don't seem particularly strongly interconnected - should be an easy move.

:: Doesn't look particularly English-specific, either. But I'll not move it for now. [[User:MyRedDice|Martin]] 00:10 19 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Real funny.I know its serious,but its funny at parts nonetheless.(The "you know you have a problem when")
New Babylon.

==Real cases==

This page and others like it are mostly humourous and give no help, respect or recognition to those people who have a serious problem with Wikipedia. There is no system to help such people, that I know of. A small number of Wikipedians who are particularly close to me have confided in me regarding their feelings towards Wikipedia. No doubt the problem is fairly common.

If anyone would like to talk privately and confidentially about how Wikipedia is affecting your life, please [[Special:Emailuser/Tim_Starling|email me]] and we'll see if we can set something up. At the moment we don't have much of a support network, but we'll see what we can do. -- [[User:Tim Starling|Tim Starling]] 15:20, Aug 1, 2004 (UTC)

== definition ==

I deleted the dictionary definition from the top of the article. That kind of thing belongs in Wiktionary, and the first paragraph does a fine enough job explaining what a Wikipediholic is.

== Information addiction ==
Does opening tab after tab of wikipedia articles (I think I have 11 up right now D:) count as wikipediholicism?
:Only 11?

== Uncool : move to meta ==

What's with moving the whole page to meta without discussion? I think this page serves a great purpose here; it's on many watchlists; it links to many pages which should show this page in ther "what links here" list. CoolCat, please explain what's on your mind... [[User:140.247.73.254|140.247.73.254]] 03:41, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

:He's done the same thing on nl, where it was reverted too, and i can guess on a bunch of other wikipedias too ;-) [[User:Venullian|Venullian]] 09:28, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

:Whats not cool about it and why is an anon lecturing me? What is there to be explained on a move to meta? Its now at meta. Just like images get moved to commons, wikipedia related stuff that doesnt help us create a better encyclopedia (aka stuff that is strictly part of wikipedia culture) are always moved to meta. What else is the point of meta? --<small>[[User:Cool Cat|Cool Cat]]<sup>[[User talk:Cool Cat|Talk]]|[[Special:Emailuser/Cool Cat|@]]</sup></small> 11:45, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

== Another Type of Wikipediholisism ==

Well, I'm a Wikipediholic, but not in the sense this page describes it - I start browsing wikipedia and simply CANNOT help but visit a ton of links from a page, then visit MORE links from each of this page, until I've got about fifty windows open and have to force myself to not open any more. I've talked to a few people who are like this as well - maybe we should add it to this article. -[[User:Jetman123|Jetman123]] 01:47, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

: Me too, I usually don't edit or log in, just browse. [[User:Noobeditor|Noobeditor]] ([[User talk:Noobeditor|talk]]) 00:39, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

::The only thing that stops me is the fact that my taskbar is not long enough to open 20 articles AT ONCE!!!

== At the bottom ==

I don't gamble, I don't play games or read other websites much more than other people I know, but I log in and out of Wikipedia for hours on end, saying I'm going to stop and coming back thirty seconds later to check my watchlist (which is large enough that there is a decent chance that something has happened in thirty seconds) and then rearrange some more categories, or fix all the incoming links to the first dab page I can find, or just hit alt-x over and over looking for violations of my idiotic pet peeves. I can't even remember how many accounts I have. I'm in my thirties; I have a cool job; I hold advanced degrees; I have a black belt; I've slept with beautiful women; I've traveled the world; I'm fluent in several languages. Life could be good, but I am throwing it all away spending fifty hours a week on Wikipedia. I've lost my wife already, and will likely soon lose my job. Why can't I control this? [[User:Lowest|Lowest]] 04:51, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

:Consider yourself a Wikipediholic, my friend. -[[User:Jetman123|Jetman123]] 08:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

::Er, why am I at Wikipedia?!? I'M SUPPOSED TO BE WORKING!!! [[User:Professor Fiendish|Professor]] [[User talk:Professor Fiendish|M.]] [[Special:Contributions/Professor Fiendish|Fiendish]], [[User:Professor Fiendish/Page of Doom!|Esq.]] 01:38, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

==A psychometrically valid questionnaire is needed==
I began the questionnaire, but I found it rather too long and tedious (perhaps the acid test of being a wikipediholic is whether one has staying power to complete it!) I really feel that if this page is to feature a test, it should be a psychometrically valid and reliable one, so that one can check its [[validity]] and [[Cronbach's alpha]]. Can we have a briefer instrument, one that has less amusing questions, and one which is less transparent, please? I would be interesting to read of validation data on this test, for example evidence that people who have used Wikipedia just about every day really do score higher than those who score seldom use it. I use Wikipedia with just about every internet visit, at least from my home PC, but felt somewhat happy doing the questionnaire that there are evidently people who would score higher than me. I am not meaning to offend Wikipedia there, just believe that one should combine use of Wikipedia with other internet resources. [[User:ACEO|ACEO]] 19:18, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Nobody is offended. You may use Wikipedia and other resources...BUT...if you are a wikipediholic, "other resources" may mean wikipedia in other languages and automatic translators. Nobody can claim this is a healty attitude, but it is an effective shortcut for a yes/no answer, instead of taking the whole questionnaire.--[[User:FocalPoint|FocalPoint]] 21:52, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

== What does this mean? ==

I really don't quite understand the reference to 'coconut mokeys', and the "and good memories" part of the same sentence. Can someone explain that further?
==Weird article==
If this article is supposed to be funny instead of being true information, then I don't think this article should exist. Wikiholism is '''''NOT''''' real. I cannot talk to myself online. I think the creators somehow are BREAKING THEIR OWN RULES. ([[User:Plainnym|Plainnym]] 14:16, 2 June 2006 (UTC))

I know that this whole test is a joke, but I am at a loss to understand why the fourth question asks how many times the test has been edited.

Perhaps Q4-11 could ask whether one has downloaded the icon to help one log in on one's desktop. I have done that - does that make me an official Wikipediholic? [[User:ACEOREVIVED|ACEOREVIVED]] ([[User talk:ACEOREVIVED|talk]]) 23:45, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

Dear Dr Wikipedia. A method of approximating the time spent on WP could be made from user contributions. If time between edits less than a few minutes )for arguments sake) is measured for all edits then an indication of the ''minimum'' time spent editing could be calculated. Has anyone done this?
