If you have a coffee-stained mug similar to this example here, you may be spending a little bit too much time on Wikipedia. Why not spend some more and take this test?
Car of Polish Wikipediholic; If you have a car with "??.wikipedia.org," you will spend too much time on WP.
If you have a keyboard similar to this example here, you might be spending too much time pressing "Wikipedia."

This is a modified version of the Wikipediholism test. It combines questions from the main and legacy tests in order to provide a more complete diagnosis of whether you're a Wikipediholic. There are 692 questions as of rev. 821953992. As long as we're going with Magic: the Gathering format names, I might as well call it the Extended version.

If you're not sure whether you are a Wikipediholic or are unsure about the amount of Wikipedihol you took, then you should take this test. Give yourself at least 15 minutes because there are around 700 questions. The point value of answering "yes" to each question is listed in parentheses ( ) at the end of the question. The higher the result, the more Wikipedihol you had!

If you have extra time, try the bonus sections to measure your Eliteness and RC. If you see URC anywhere, it is a lie and should be reported to the Universe Police.

Suggestions for new questions and modifications are of course welcome—good questions are those that measure current addiction (e.g., "have you edited a page in the last week?", not "have you ever edited a page?"), on the hypothesis that Wikipediholicism can be cured, or at least controlled to some degree. New questions should be added as #ENTRY (point value, additional notes). Standard, legacy, and modern versions are also available.

Interpreting your score edit

Please round your score down to the nearest interval (round up if negative). Scores in red are negative, green is zero, black is positive, and dark blue is legendary. If you thought the red text signified broken links, and were about to attempt fixing them, add 10 to your score. If you found out that they are actually clickable and DID fix them add 25. If you realized they weren't clickable after all because the person before you fixed it and you fixed it back again add another 50. Add another 50 if you just pressed the undo button on the page history. And you can remove 10 if you actually made a red link. Add 10 if you fixed that red link. Add 20 if you found out that you didn't make a red link, but a question. If you thought the blue text signified links, and were about to attempt delinking them, subtract 10 from your score. If they were links, and you fixed them, add 10 to your score. Note that vandalism generally affects eliteness, and not your score. Add 10 to your score if you read this paragraph completely.

Score Result
-1000 and below You are either Willy on Wheels or are a liar.
-100 You strongly dislike Wikipedia. Below this score is almost impossible.
-10 You don't know what Wikipedia is.
-1 You are a n00b that is off to a poor start.
0 This score is actually possible even though some Wikipedians might disagree.
1 You are a n00b or you have never edited. That or you only answered question #1 and were too lazy to continue.
Pi This result can be achieved for one of the following reasons-
  • You have defied every single Law of Probability in existence.
  • You are unable to use a calculator proficiently.
10 You are an IP address user or a sock puppet with few edits.
100 You are an average new contributor.
200 A well-balanced attitude that may benefit by spending more time on Wikipedia.
300 You have normal experience with Wikipedia.
400 Congratulations, you are in the optimal range for editing with Wikipedia!

1,000 You are a Wikipediholic.
1,500 You are at the stage of advanced Wikipediholism. Please see a doctor.

5,000 You are the ultimate Wikipediholic! Congratulations! Now, get back to editing (What are you doing here? Work!)
10,000 Scores in this range are usually fatal.
30,000 You either played a part in creating Wikipedia or are a ghost. Good job!

1,000,000 Thank you for sparing this test from your roundhouse kicks.
WP:AGF and WP:NPA forbid us from accusing you of cheating at this test.  

Interpreting your eliteness edit

Eliteness signifies how elite you are. It also signifies how dedicated you are to Wikipedia and other parts of your life. A high score generally means that you are likable. A low score means that you are probably a vandal. This is colored magenta if positive, spring green if negative, azure if zero, and other colors if legendary or anti-legendary.

Score Result
-25 Eliteness (Anti-Legendary) You are the worst vandal in existence, including the other planes. You vandalize Wikipedia at levels that even Willy on Wheels could never manage it, and the supreme overlord of the universe plans to destroy you to stop your nuclear bomb strength vandalism.
-10 Eliteness You are a super mega extreme abusive vandal/troll/disruptive editor, a wikiterrorist, a liar (check your pants to see if they are not on fire), or you have been blocked a lot.
-5 Eliteness You are an extremely evil/abusive vandal/troll, a wikiterrorist, a liar who calls him or her self "The Jimbo Wales", or you thought this test was a complete/total/utter waste of time.
-4 Eliteness You are a really evil vandal. You will probably be blocked.
-3 Eliteness You always do WP:BLP violations, lots of edit-warring, and about 50% to 65% of your edits are vandalism.
-2 Eliteness You are a vandal (1/3 to 1/2 of your edits are considered vandalism or minor edit warring).
-1 Eliteness You likely have no intention of helping Wikipedia.
0 Eliteness You are regular in the Eliteness axis.
1 Eliteness You are a leet Wikipediholic, or an elite normal user with a life.
2 Eliteness You are an elite Wikipediholic and a prime candidate for rollback rights.
3 Eliteness You are a 1337 Wikipediholic and a prime candidate for RfA.
4 Eliteness You are a 9001 Wikipediholic and a prime candidate for RfB.
5 Eliteness You are a 31337 Wikipediholic and a prime candidate for steward.
10 Eliteness You are just elite. This is what Jimbo Wales had.
25 Eliteness (Legendary) You are elite like Chuck Norris.
100 Eliteness There is no way to describe this level of eliteness.

Interpreting your RC edit

RC is a very rare artifact currency that signifies mythicalness. Negative RC is possible due to the existence of antimatter. A high RC balance indicates a true hero. A high RC debt indicates a vile beast. What RC stands for is unknown, but rumors say it stands for Rare Coins.

Score Result
-5 RC You are the anti-Chuck Norris.
-3 RC You have caused a bomb to explode in your computer.
-1 RC You have transgressed.
0 RC You are normal.
1 RC You are valorous.
2 RC You are good.
3 RC You are a hero.
4 RC You are a 1337 hero.
5 RC You are a true hero.
7 RC You are Hercules.
10 RC You are the saviour of the world from a killer Kim Jong-un who dropped a billion nukes on Wikipedia!!!1
25 RC You are the saviour of the universe from just about everything bad that will happen.

Interpreting your URC edit

URC can be used to multiply your points, Eliteness, or RC values since URC have not been studied.

1 URC can give you a x1000 points multiplier, a x10 Eliteness multiplier, or a x2 RC multiplier. Buying multiples stack, so 2 points multipliers give x1000000, 2 eliteness multipliers give x100, and 2 RC multipliers give x4.

URC multipliers act differently with negative scores. Buying a points multiplier on a negative score is x0, a Eliteness multiplier on negative Eliteness is x0.1, and a RC multiplier on negative RC is x0.5

If you have negative URC, you must buy a x0 points multiplier, a x0.1 Eliteness multiplier, or a x0.5 RC multiplier on positive scores.

If you have negative URC and negative scores, a x1000 points multiplier for negative points, a x10 Eliteness multiplier for negative eliteness, and a x2 RC multiplier for negative RC may be bought, but you must use up all negative URC.

URC can be used to multiply your bitcoin or dogecoin as well if you are still hodling those.

This is the Universe Police. You're under arrest.

Reference scores edit

You finished the test! edit

Great job! You can use the {{User:pythoncoder/Wikipediholic}} template to display your score on your userpage. Entering the code below produces the userbox on the right:
