Nice blog!

A lot of the reason I branched out from just being mass editor (and a fast one too, heh) is Community Central - I began to realise that wiki editing wasn't just about content but also more enjoyable when you work on shared goals and help people in varied ways. There's adoptions to check, there's help pages to edit, there's a forum that got pretty busy around Easter and there's a live chatroom where people keep an eye out for passersby in need of help.

You also learn a lot more by helping people and seeing activity from every corner of the site - I went from basic wikitext knowledge to meddling in CSS & JS quite quickly.
