I don’t do this on LessWrong, but that may be because I don’t care enough about LW, and the stakes are too low.
On Wikipedia, though, there are at least 10 editors who, when I see their name come up on my watchlist, I briefly freeze up with a combination of fear, disgust, and anger.
Fewer deletions. On Wikipedia, I have to fight tooth and nail for some things just to remain (and I often fail; I’m still a little bitter about the off-handed deletion of the Man-Faye article a few days ago); on LW, deletion of stuff is so rare that it’s a major event when Eliezer deletes an article.

Just curious: why do you consider LW to be lower stakes than wikipedia?
