:Why yes of course. And perhaps Wikipedia in Chinese is even somewhat [[heroic trolling]], given that it allows wider opinions than the Chinese media do. But maybe they block Wikipedia because Wikipedia does not respect [[w:User:Plato/red_faction|its own red faction]] or offer them a chance to displace [[Bomis]], as they should. As surely as the Communists displaced the Nationalists in China, the wikipedia red faction will replace the [[usurper]]s of [[Bomis]] and end their [[Wikimedia corruption]]. | :Why yes of course.

''[http://www.io.com/~zikzak/troll_thesis.html Trolls: A Social Movement]'' claims that in 1999 the number of "active" trolls (defined as someone who starts or contributes to a troll more than 5 times a week, and engages in trolling not less than 3 hours per week) at any one time is estimated to be between 3000 and 5000 people, with the statistical sample size being representative of approximately 0.88% of the group. The number of people who engage in [[sporadic trolling]] is estimated at approximately 100 times the number of "active" trolls. | |||
Five years later, and with [[Wikimedia corruption]] and other [[troll-formative injustice]] going on, that number has to be much higher. |
