Wikipedia: User fame

Surely a user may gain a sort of unoffical fame as they edit more stuff, as the more they do the more they will appear on the history of wikipedia (resulting in people checking out their user page or resulting in a bunch of Beethoven addicted turtles to spontaneously jump off the cliffs of Dover), (which would be much like appearing in a film as actors gain people knowledge as to whom they are as they appear in films, but so the do the rest of the film crew), and the more they will be recognised by other users who may give them Barnstars, or just discuss a topic with them; then again they may not do anything at all but they may still recognise them next time they see anything about them and then check out their user page. If more people check out the user's user page the more 'fame' they would have aquired and people may then give them Barnstars or talk to them, they may also become a sort of idle to many new users; of cause the user could be like me and get no recognition what so ever. Other factors are that they may join wikiprojects or become enlisted in certain other active projects like The anti-vandal band or become an admin; people may ask for help from the administrator or they might help new user's get started , other things include people reporting to the Counter-Vandalism unit about vandalism and if they do a good job at countering any vandalism people might recognise them and reward them or thank them. Wikiprojects mean that people who see their 'excellent' editing may thank or (as previously stated many times before) recognise them. Over all most of this stuff will help you be recognised and rewarded, so I suggest that wikiholics may consider this as well as taking the Wikiepediholism test, of course that is if you haven't done so already, but all true wikiholics have taken the test so what are you doing here, TAKE THE TEST NOWWWWWW!!!!!!!!; and if you are a wikiholic then why are you reading this, go and start a new article or something. Sorry, just a random rant.
