I spend most of my Wikitime trying to fight off vandals and update some very empty categories when I get a chance.
The most vandalized pages are those dealing with controversial issues, current fads curently embraced by today's youth, and the ever popular Today's featured article.
When I get the time I will work on making a decent user page. I'm added myself to watchlists of articles I pass or topics that rendomly come to mind If I believe they are a probable target for vandals.
Wikipedia is great resource and hope one day that free registration will be required to edit without being detrimental to the purpose of wikipedia. I know this will hinder the countless efforts by anon readers in regards to grammatical and typographical errors, but that is a small sacrifice compared to the amount of time currently needed to reverse the the childish efforts of vandals.
