Summary

Description
English: Wikidrama worth of Shakespeare, with Rich Farmbrough as the main hero. At the end of March 2012 Rich was at the top of the en:Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians by number of edits with almost 1 million edits. But he was blocked and put on a closed trial by Arbcom. Meanwhile, Koavf continued editing and catching up with Rich, and finally became the first ever human editor to reach his 1,000,000 edit on 18 April 2012. Poor Rich :(

I dedicate this work to the people who are among the best and greatest of Wikipedians: Elen, Rich and Koavf. I deeply respect all of them, and I know that Elen and Rich have found my previous satire works funny, so I hope they like this one too.

It is a pity that while doing so much great work on the development of Wikipedia, editors can't always get along with each other and often drama erupts. In my view, an obvious maxim should be followed, that the greatest of the Wikipedia riches is its editors - productive, constructive, contributive editors. They should be cherished and preserved, their inevitable share of mistakes should be dealt with in an accurate and non-punitive way, since they create most of the content, and the worst thing admins and arbitrators could do is to enhance the present tendencies of declining participation by driving the best contributors from the project. Let us edit in peace and love!
