I have been increasingly worried about one editors contribution history lately. The vast majority (possibly over 90%) of their last 500 edits have been in Wikipedia/Wikipedia talk space. It is my understanding that Wikipedia: space is for editors to use to organise the development of articles.
It rather depends. If they are an admin, doing admin things, then it's understandable. One of the more frustrating things is that we take people who are good editors, give them admin tools, and then they spend the rest of their time fighting idiots until they get pissed off and leave. Well, maybe.
I have to say, though, that the so-called "sandboxians" who spend their time at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sandbox/Storytelling and so on, really do seem to have missed the point a bit.
