 | This page in a nutshell: Please be as mean to others as possible, especially the newcomers. Remember to assume bad faith. Material considered too civil may be challenged and removed. |
Wikipedia always has lots of newcomers that drive you up the wall. We must be extremely hostile to them and always assume that they want to destroy our precious wiki in order to have them understand the true meaning of Wikipedia.
New members often seem all sweetness and light at first, but most turn out to be vandals and bad-faith editors at the end. Practically like a "demon". Therefore, it is very important to assume bad faith and bite them. Hard. So if you see a newcomer do ANYTHING remotely wrong, go ahead and bite their damn ass. Newbies are often delicious if you bite them right, and you will achieve great satisfaction by doing so. In fact, when pushed to their breaking point, traumatized, and generally beaten up by the entire wiki, newbies are the most delicious things you can find on Wikipedia, aside from articles about restaurants.
