A dormant WikiOgre

A WikiOgre or WikiOgress is an editor who goes for long stretches making few or no edits, but for short periods of time and in brief spats makes large edits, complete rewrites, or even new articles. The WikiOgre may otherwise make minor edits, such as copyediting or vandalism reversion, over the course of everyday perusal. He only goes looking for trouble when his schedule isn’t full and something has ignited the passion to edit.

In other words, every once in a while the WikiOgre goes on a rampage, but most of the time he just sits around in his cave and eats the random passerby.

It has been shown that, due to their generally uninvolved Wikipedia life, WikiOgres are easily offended and may take long WikiBreaks to recover.

How to identify WikiOgres

A WikiOgre who has ventured out of his cave, advancing on five unsuspecting Wikipedia stubs.

To advertise your WikiOgrishness on your userpage, add:

or

Another way for WikiOgres to identify themselves is to display an ogre at the top of the page next to the User's name. The following code should produce a small ogre at the top of the page {{Wikipedia:WikiOgre/topicon}}. To make use of the two optional parameters, the horizontal and vertical positions respectively, the default coordinates are (30, 8).
