Wiki types

File:Marzipan Frog.jpg | It's not easy being green! Do your best, but if others don't agree, seek consensus.(Original file snatched ...:File:Kermit the Frog.jpg) Here are some tips to find your way, new beginner ... in The Electric Mayhem called Wikipedia -a collection of pictures or photographs of criminals and suspects kept for identification purposes

| The toybox is like Wikipedia: we are all in the same basket.

File:%27Dollz%27_icon_of_woman_in_green.png |(Original picture removed; :Image:The Electric Mayhem.jpg) Electricalgirls can be timid and shy. However, they might instead be possessive of articles (which is not good — Wikipedians should let others edit articles).

File:MOA Shark mascot1.JPG |(Original picture removed); :File:Animal (Muppet).jpg Frustrated types show their teeth.

File:Toys Plastic.jpg|(Original picture removed; :File:Beaker (Muppet)-en.jpg) The new-beginner editor who doesn't understand a thing about Wikipedia rules, yet.

File:Mollyblues.jpg | Other frustrated types bite.

|Some editors really need the good faith.

File:Beak Doctor.jpg | Experts may have a PhD; they always know many things, and wish to tell the readership.

File:Ours en peluche - 22.jpg |The nice editors do their best.

File:Kangaroo and joey03.jpg | The Australians don't know how the rest of the world works ... or is this systemic bias at work? Remain neutral!

|(Original picture removed; :File:Gonzo 3C 200x300px.jpg) Weird editors will do weird things. That's fine sometimes ... or not.

File:Washington Wild Things mascot.jpg | Debaters try to hammer other editors with their most convincing arguments. Just stick to the sources!

File:Monkey teddy 1.JPG | Original editors see everything upside down. This can be confusing! Do not be alarmed.

File:Doctor Dolittle. Toy.jpg |(Original picture removed; Dr. Bunsen Honeydew :File:Dr. Bunsen Honeydew.jpg) Medical topics are very tricky, because people could get hurt.

| Dog lovers mostly stick to editing articles about canines. That's fine, if they really know about dogs ....

File:Lensless glasses - 02.jpg |The geeks. Some editors are geniuses, at least in their own minds. This makes them very hard to convince, of anything!

File:The Washington Nationals' presidential mascots and official mascot, Screech, pose for a photo with, from left, Secretary of the Army John McHugh, Vice Chief of Staff of the Army Gen. Lloyd Austin and Chairman 120614-A-TT930-006.jpg | There are the OLD Wikipedians who know best (and they usually do).

File:Japanese old man.jpg | There is the even OLDER Wikipedian who knows best,

File:Balaclava 3 hole black.jpg|The editor who has multiple an accounts,

File:Alice par John Tenniel 37.png|and there are the editors who always get their way by printing WP:This and WP:That (often not quite true but it sounds good.)

File:Teddy-online.JPG|There are the editors who are dragged to the ANI and spend a lot of time defending themselves somehow there.

File:Three teddy bears.jpg|There are the completely Angelic editors, polite and loving (like Yngvadottir - when not busy) - (Very rare)

|And there are the happy guys who chat happily with everyone and love everybody - also very rare.

File:Mask of shame.jpg|And there are the picture cleaners.

File:HEINRICH FÜSSLI - Falstaff en la cesta (Kunsthaus, Zúrich, 1792).jpg|And there are the editors who left or got banned by the banners.

File:Toy Xoloitzcuintli Puppy.jpg|There is the orphan editor who is alone and nobody cares for him or her.

File:Screech Mascot.jpg | (Original picture removed; :File:SamTheEagle.jpg) Pompous editors may know things or may not, but because they believe that they are better, smarter, or more important than other people, it really doesn't matter. Although they have contact with a lot of editors, they can be spotted at Christmastime, almost never receive friendly Christmas messages.

File:KnightroCamp.JPG | Here we are all: the Wikipedians. Everybody knows his or her part and all have a point, and all are here to contribute, with the exception of the totally really stupid guys. We call those vandals; cos they vandalize..
