From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A WikiOkie is a mythical Wikipedian creature characterized by a desire to write articles in a clear and straightforward manner, possibly, but not necessarily, because of an inability to grasp complex ideas. WikiOkies are only loosely based on the equally mythical " Okie" creature, [1] and do not have to live in Oklahoma. [2] Their range extends to all corners of the globe, or anywhere that has access to Wikipedia. Declare your level of WikiOkieness by signing my guestbook.


Some WikiOkies get together each year to discuss who they've shot for making articles too complicated. [3]

  1. YOU DLE
  1. ^ "WikiOkies" are loosely based on a false dust-bowl era stereotype believed today only by ignorant people. Most modern Oklahomans are educated and resourceful, while Oklahoma itself is one of the most culturally diverse states in the United States with large sophisticated cities, small mountain ranges, and abundant forests, lakes, and grasslands.
  2. ^ Okie: Slang term denoting a resident or native of Oklahoma.
  3. ^ See WP:CABAL.
