Recovering from Wikipediholism

Read this every 1 hour you spend on Misplaced Pages:

Misplaced Pages is a great project. It's good to help Misplaced Pages. It's a good pastime and it's very educational.

However:

  1. Every hour you spend at Misplaced Pages is an hour from your life. Do you have something more important to do? Do it first.
  2. Misplaced Pages may not help you realize your personal goals in life.
  3. Even though Misplaced Pages is educational, there may be other better ways of educating yourself. Misplaced Pages is not necessarily a substitute for them.
  4. Time is money. Are you sure you can afford the time to serve Misplaced Pages? If you can, well good but do so one hour at a time only!
  5. Sometimes it is necessary that you take a WikiBreak when you have something much more important to do. Moreover it will help in rejuvenating yourself.

All the best. Remember, Misplaced Pages wants you to be the best person you can. It is not the goal of the project to steal the time you can use to improve your career prospects, learn new skills, spend time with your family, rejuvenate yourself, or use any way you wish. Remember, it's your time and you are donating it to Misplaced Pages. It is healthy to donate what you can afford to donate, but no more.

Note: You can get an anti-Wikipediholism reminder once an hour if you like or in more serious cases use the WikiBreak Enforcer.
