So that's what the paragraph in the i was about - it didn't mention paid editors. Glad to see an explanation.

Knew about Antandrus, but not Raul's Laws.  Thanks.

Only six comments so far, if anyone wants to weigh in.

Hello everyone,

I've just encountered a Wikipedia essay from a user called Antandrus. It's from 2006/7 or so initially but much of it still holds true. 

It may be familiar to you but thought you might like it, too - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Antandrus/observations_on_Wikipedia_behavior



for the thing itself, rather than the talk page. The grand-daddy of such lists is of course
