RecentChanges Junkie's Nightmare
Recent Changes Junkies Nightmare - n sg.
User who edit too many pages at once and thus create a huge list of changed pages in RecentChanges, which in turn places a heavy burden on RecentChangesJunkies. Also known as RecentChangesDealer.
Honorary titles have been awarded to:
- MtnViewMark for editings on 10th-Oct-2001
- unkx80 for forgetting the MinorEdit checkbox on 2nd-Dec-2001

- KarlKnechtel for his contributions 15th-Jul-2002 to 19th-Jul-2002
- DieterVerhofstadt for editings on July 18, 2002 and his coldblooded statement on CoffeeMachine afterwards: "You RecentChangesJunkies' nightmares make my day."
- doulos for indirectly generating the most traffic in edits of Hikaru no Go Junkie 22nd-July-2002 onward --lavalyn
- SAS For his August 13th renaming of dozens of pages (was there a point to this?) --StormCrow (SAS: It was five pages, not "dozens". And of course there was a point: people refer to the "4-4 point", not the "four four point". And for some reason it's impossible to adjust the page title to "4-4 point" without moving it to 44Point. Perhaps I should have marked all the edits as minor though. (ChessWhiz: Duh. :-))
- CharlesMatthews for his contributions on 4th-Sept-2002
- TimBrent for his contributions on January 9,2003

(feel free to add other nightmarish people :o)
First potential candidate of 2005:(excluding whoever renamed all those systematic joseki pages a few weeks ago.... ;) )
- Quicksilvre for a flurry of new Pro pages created on 27th March 2005 !?
- Benjamin Teuber for a colossal 26 consecutive entries on the 27th May 2005. (what is it with the 27th Day of the month?)
Benjamin: I think there's a lack in your space-time-continuum ;-) Well, if UGS is disturbing you SL-junkies, we can move somewhere else - though I thought you guys could be interested in a free server ...
Hint: there is an obscure feature called MinorEdit for the edits you made :o)
OK, that's right - thought that deleting a page as a minor edit seems strange. I will use it in the future for any restructuring...
unkx80: Highlighting the page delete requests in Wiki Orphans is sufficient. ;)
