It could be worse. There was a newspaper article sometime ago that
called us Wikipedaphiles.

Goddamn! What I want to know is why papers always
call us "Wikipediots".
It's too close to idiot to be anything but degrading. I don't call
journalists "newsies" or the like do I? It says quite clearly all over the
site, "Wikipedian". Besides, adding -idiots is grammatically nonsensical.
It's the first time I've seen the name, but I don't like it either. It
seems deliberately offensive, to me...
