Talk:Wikipedia/System gamers

Unclear

Wikipedia is a topic of great interest to me, so this page attracted my attention. Nevertheless, I can't make much sense of it:( Assuming it's about Wikipedia, how about a move to Wikipedia/System gamers?

I think I can guess what you mean by "system gamers", but a clear explanation is needed about what this "level" actually refers to. Robin (talk) 03:24, 12 September 2014 (IST)

I understand what you are saying and it is on my list as the first thing to do (after breakfast) --Two Dogs (talk) 07:51, 12 September 2014 (IST)

I've done some more on it now and hopefully it's becoming clearer - though I haven't finished yet. As for moving it, please feel free: I don't know how to. --Two Dogs (talk) 08:44, 12 September 2014 (IST)

Levels

The level thing is a 1 to 5 score where 1=slight/subtle and 5=outright/blatant. The idea being that maybe the columns could be sorted. This is just an idea - so any comments would be welcome. Another way to consider this is that, based on behaviour 1 may just be acceptable on WikiSpooks and 5 would definitely not. --Two Dogs (talk) 09:14, 12 September 2014 (IST)

WP is a top-down controled system. I fear pillorying editors by giving "grades" will lead to more of the same violence, distracting people from understanding any of the underlying mechanisms. If you want to debunk certain editors spreading disinformation, please consider doing so in a case study. --Urban (talk) 12:39, 24 September 2014 (IST)
