For some the recognition and ownership of their efforts is important. I've remarked how on some user pages there is a
very long list of the
articles on which they have worked. They are
often dilligent about
keeping it up to date. When they stop keeping it
up the list it's a
good sign that they have begun learning to
submerge their ego.
The reason why I do it is because I'm always getting idiots claiming that I do nothing but Recent Changes trolling and making minor changes. It's for self defense. There have been several times when these people try to claim that I don't contribute to Wikipedia, and all I have to do is to point to that page.
