Wikipedia:The Great Wikipedia Dramaout/4th

WP:NODRAMA/4

This page in a nutshell: For 5 days, starting March 1, 2012, Wikipedians are being asked to voluntarily refrain from editing all non-article areas of Wikipedia, and instead dedicate themselves to creating, cleaning up, and building articles.

Beginning Wednesday, March 1, 2012 at 00:01 (UTC) and continuing for five days will be the 4th Great Wikipedia Dramaout. In deference to the Great American Smokeout, editors are being asked to engage in a 5-day period of abstinence from drama at Wikipedia; the most addictive^{[citation needed]} and yet cancerous aspect of our community. During this 5-day drama blackout, it is requested that regular contributors to the non-article-space areas of Wikipedia, including but not limited to, the various administrator noticeboards, the reference desks, the village pumps, or any other non-mainspace related areas of Wikipedia cease working at those areas for the length of the Dramaout and instead work on article content. With the exception of areas deemed essential to improving articles directly, all participating editors are asked to voluntarily abstain from non-article edits. If the dramas prevent you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore them.

A bit late to sign up, but seeing as Ive only made 3 edits to ANI since June despite being still fairly active overall, I think I can get into the spirit of this. ☮Soap☮ 03:48, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Counter-protest[edit]

With the zombies away, now maybe we can get something done.

"My signature below indicates that I solemnly pledge to add just enough drama and other non-essential actions to Wikipedia, to offset the above-mentioned increased dedication to article editing, for the 5 day period beginning 00:00, 1 March 2012 (UTC)."
