Make sure you wait no longer than 2 minutes after a page is created before slapping on a speedy delete tag. Otherwise, someone else might beat you to it. There's an extra bonus for tagging articles on a topic widely familar to educated adults on the grounds that you've never heard of it.</li> <li>Make sure that irrelevant personal chat (preferably consisting of context-free one-liners) predominates on your talk page. If a thread about editing an actual article appears, archive it immediately and quickly add more chat. Search your friends' talk pages for ideas.</li></ul> <p>You can also perform routine maintenance tasks. </p> <ul><li>Always spell "editor" and "contributor" as "editer and "contributer".</li> <li>Include plenty of profanity in your talk page comments. This one works in a variety of subtle ways. Since adult-like editors rarely swear on talk pages, people will assume that you are trying act like a grown-up but are clueless as to how to go about it, i.e. that you're a kid. Alternatively, it may indicate that you read <i><a href="/wiki/Catcher_in_the_Rye" class="mw-redirect" title="Catcher in the Rye">Catcher in the Rye</a></i>, but completely missed the point, i.e. that you're a kid. Either way, you win. Note also that having a sense of proportion is strongly associated with adult-like people. Therefore, to maximize the effect of your swearing, focus its use on very minor issues to show how <a href="/wiki/Tunguska_event" title="Tunguska event">deeply upset</a> you are by them.</li> <li>Periodically announce that you're taking a wikibreak because you have to write a "book report". Avoid the use of "term paper". It muddies the waters because college students also write them. "Essay" is no good either.
