I am a WikiOgre

Or at least that's what they call me...

See, a WikiOgre 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."

Now, I don't necessarily like the implied comparison to Shrek, (even though I am a large man, I'm a bit sensitive on that...) I prefer to think of my activity as a wikibinge. I go for long stretches where all I do is copyedit the random article that I see in my daily use of the project. But every so often, I come out and patrol AfD and take on a project or two.
