If you're not sure whether you are a Wikipediholic or are unsure about the amount of Wikipedihol you took, then you should take this test. Be prepared to take at least 17.5 minutes because there are about 200 questions. The point value of answering "yes" to each question is listed in parentheses  at the end of the question. The higher the result, the more Wikipedihol you had! New questions and modifications are of course welcome—good questions are those that measure current addiction (e.g., "have you edited a page in the last week?", not "have you ever edited a page?"), on the hypothesis that Wikipediholism can be cured, or at least controlled to some degree. New questions should be added as  in order to be compatible with the automated version. There's an automated version if you don't want to add up the score yourself; legacy and modern versions are also available.

Bonus questions
You don't get any points for these questions, since they may be redundant or not provide a good measure of current addiction. However the answers may provide useful information for your health worker:


 * Have you ever argued with a functionary?
 * Do you use your own name or some obscure nick (ScrofulousToad, Airigance 99, etc.)?
 * Have you ever removed outdated questions from this test?
 * Have you ever neglected to maintain personal hygiene in favor of Wikipedia?
 * Have you ever broken up with a significant other, because they didn't think Wikipedia was "all that"?
 * Have you ever had an edit conflict—?
 * Do you create your own Wikipedia words? (like "Wikidicted?")
 * Are you upset that
 * ...you wrote an article on Wikipedia addiction and someone said it sounded "like the grammar and speech patterns of a Wikipedian"?
 * ...it got deleted by AfD?
 * Have you created a page full of red links, and then made a decision to put everything else on hold until you could (a) either fill in all the (red) blanks or (b) until your body could take it no further or (c) your computer couldn't?
 * ...are those other tabs saving edits and/or loading pages, ?
 * ... of them are either loading or saving a page?
 * Have you edited Wikipedia pages during intermittent power outages?
 * Are you considering the purchase of an uninterruptible power supply solely because you "lost a good edit" while doing so?
 * Have you ever edited the modern version of this test?
 * Have you ever taken the modern version of this test seriously?
 * When someone says "dab" outside of a Wikipedia context, do you immediately think "disambiguation"?
