Wiki-ped-ia

To the tune of Ice Ice Baby. See original lyrics here.

Yo Wiki P let’s kick it
Wiki-ped-ia (x2)
All right pull up the homepage and listen
Wikipedia’s got another mission
Edits reverts and summaries too
Wikipedia’s got a mission for you
Click on a page read it and edit
There is an error somewhere I bet
Unless it’s a page that has been featured
Then it’s probably like a perfect creature
Nothing wrong with it then look elsewhere
Yo Wikipedians an error over there
Maybe it’s some vandalization
We can’t live with this degradation
Fix it revert it maybe baby
These vandals must all, must all have rabies
If there’s a problem yo we won’t repeat it
Check out that page so the admin deletes it
Wiki-ped-ia Edit it (x4)
Now that that has been reverted
And the administrators power asserted
Go now and edit up your user page
And tell the world about the page you just saved
Look a new message in your discussion
Your head is pounding like a percussion
“Hello” the guy writes to you kindly
“I like what you’ve done with that category”
That is the end of story
You go to the homepage tres happily
Wiki P’s all right it’s the vandals you fight
Man o manny your outta sight
You go you click on a blue link
You click one more link and then one more link then you think
The link is red
So you got a blank page about nothing but the white screen in your face
Now you pull up Google to search for it
Zero info makes you blankly sit
You give up, then Random Page you click
What you see really truly makes you sick
Vandals once again destroy info
This has to be gotta be a really bad sin yo
George Bush isn’t from India
Bad information uh-uh see ya
Another good page saved by you
You’re an asset to Wiki this is true
You jump to the Community Portal
And see a request for info about a turtle
You majored in bio and tell what you know
Then you add a picture just for good show
If there’s a problem yo we won’t repeat it
Check out that page so the admin deletes it
Repeat Chorus
You’ve got 80,000 edits and growing
The more you explore Wiki P the more you’re knowing
Learning all the inner machinations
Rooting out all the infestations
You’ve been on 34 hours straight
Ya haven’t drank bathed or ate
Smelly and sweaty
Hair all greasy and gooey
So now you get up to take a pooey
Now you start going through Wiki withdrawal
Cut your bathroom break so fast just to get back on
Ready to edit but you’ve missed so much son
You wanna restart the whole Wiki mission
But first you must get out of the fetal position
If there’s a problem yo we won’t repeat it
Check out that page so the admin deletes it
Wiki-ped-ia edit it
Wiki-ped-ia (oh-oh) edit it
Wiki-ped-ia edit it
Wiki-ped-ia edit Wiki
Yo man let's get out of here
Word to the Wiki
Wiki-ped-ia sogood
Wiki-ped-ia so good so good (x2)
Wiki-ped-ia
