Such material is not meant to be taken seriously. |
If you're not sure if you are a wikipediholic, you should take this test. 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 likely it is that you are a wikipediholic! 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. Formats should be added as #ENTRY (point value, additional notes) in order to be compatible with the automated version.
Give yourself at least 30 minutes (2 hours with the manual version) because there are more than 1,000 questions!
Don't want it to take that long? Then use the automated version!
- Depending on your browser, browsing away from the automated test page may cause you to lose all of your progress. But real Wikipediholics don't do that anyway. Come to think of it, actually they might, if they want to edit this article.

Interpreting your score
Please round your score to the nearest interval. Scores in red are negative, black is positive, green is zero. If you thought the red text signified broken links, and were about to attempt fixing them, add 100 to your score. If you found out that they are actually clikable and DID fix them add 250. If you realised they weren't clikable after all because the person before you fixed it and you fixed it back again add another 500. Add another 500 if you just pressed the undo button on the page history.
