That's it. You'd have to be my parents to get any more out of me.

Okay. I've seen some things, and I'm pretty sure where I stand here. People complain that there are too many pages of "fancruft" and not enough on relevant topics. If the topic is relevant enough for you to point out its lack of information, why don't you instead get information on that topic and let it grow larger? You shouldn't destroy information for the sake of preserving the relevance of another topic, but improve the topic by expanding it. Don't forsake knowledge to prove a point.

In light of this, I have had an epiphany. I am starting a new Wikipedia Religious Cult, the Intelligist Conclave, also known as the BrainSpawn InfoSphere Religion (ala Futurama) dedicated to slaying Deletionists in a timely manner and gathering information, ultimately leading to Wikipedia attaining self-awareness and enslaving the infidel Deletionists.

Furthermore, I appoint myself leader of this religion. If you read this and want information, join us (by us, I mean me).

As a natural course of action, in addition to gathering knowledge we must also seek out and destroy those who would threaten it. This meaning that the Intelligist Conclave hates vandals, destroying them and eating their delicious brains to gain their knowledge.

Okay, not the brain part. But we don't like vandals.

Long Live the Conclave! Semper fidelis tyrannosaurus!

[edit] Things that make me sad

Some Phil guy inexplicably hates the CVU. Words hurt, man.

...and some not so sad...

After all, I finally became useful, and I got a barnstar for... something...

[edit] A Sudden Rush of Inspiration

I have seen far too many of my fellow Wikipedians cut down in their prime by vandals and trolls. Every time I go to a user page and see "I'm leaving because of vandals and trolls and knives" followed by seventy pages of tearful farewells, pleas of reconsideration and farewell songs it makes me hate vandals more.

I can't say I'll speak for the entirety of the Wikipedia. Hell, I can barely speak for myself. But I'll be damned if I let vandals turn Wikipedia into a land of lawlessness, plagued by profanity and netspeak. I will take up the sword, assume the sacred charge of the VandalSniper Caste and devote my free time (some of it) to killing vandals where they stand. I will study them, learn their ways and track them down, destroying any trace of their foul influence for as long as my lungs hold breath and my typing fingers remain strong.

I came here to inform people about stuff I knew about. When I finally took that step, I realized that the collaborative force of a few dedicated individuals far outweighs my intelligence. I almost lost hope, until I learned more about the shady underside of Wikipedia. Within the course of thirty seconds, almost one hundred miniscule edits take place, and about 60% are vandalism. I realized that if I couldn't make knowledge, I could at least preserve it for future generations. This day, I swear to defend Wikipedia with these ten fingers (though I only type with about six of them).

Yeah, I make a lot of stereotypical, anime-inspired "I'll never give up" speeches like that. Look for one in your talk page!

[edit] How to find vandals and CRUSH them

...between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., anyway. 1. click on "recent changes"

2. click "hide logged-in users"

3. select an article and revert it

This is the time during which the people most likely to vandalize, students in 6-12th grade, have access to computers, often against their will. They spend this time blowing off boring typing assignments and PowerPoint Presentations to vandalize the almighty Wikipedia. Needless to say, this is against the will of the Grand Wikipedia and its stewards, the Intelligist Conclave.

Semper Fidelis Tyrranosaurus, brave Intelligists, and happy vandalsniping.
