All the wiki's a stage,
And all the users merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one user in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first the noob,
Using bad grammar and spelling in the admin's arms.
And then the whining gnome, with his small edits,
And shining morning face, creeping like something funny that creeps along,
Unwillingly to STUFF. And then the translator,
Sighing like funtimes, with a woeful ballad
Made to his SysRq's eyebrow. Then a transcriber,
Full of strange oaths and keyboarded like the pard,
Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in STUFF,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the admin,
In fair round belly with good capon lined,
With eyes severe and keyboard of formal macros,
Full of wise saws and modern reverts;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slipper'd reservist,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side,
His youthful hose, well saved, a wiki too wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second noobishness and mere inactivity,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
