A WikiGoat is a type of user seeking anti-vandalistic fun and excitement. Mostly new users, they can usually be found roaming around the hills of WikiLove, sending messages to pre-existing users as they ask for help. Many WikiGoats have roadrunner traits when it comes to their editing skills, but some skilled WikiGoats may even acquire puma abilities.
Status
editWikiGoats are listed as a least concern species, due to their common sightings. The scientific name for a WikiGoat is Capra aegagrus hircus. Sometimes, WikiGoats can cause havoc, but it doesn't happen too often. WikiGoats are a very new species, only being discovered on February 1, 2021. WikiGoats are some of the most peaceful, yet rowdy species on Wikipedia. WikiGoats are very good friends with other WikiGoats, WikiPuppies, Admins, and WikiRoadRunners.
Crotchety old users can find WikiGoats to be a nuisance, but should try to avoid intimidating these well-meaning creatures. A WikiGoat can sometimes have traits similar to a WikiGoblin in that they don’t understand appropriate venues for their goofing around, but just like WikiGoblins this is easily remedied by temporarily quarantining them to the sandbox.
Identification
editAlmost every user can be recognized as a WikiGoat, but many people just don't realize it. WikiGoats are everywhere these days; you just have to look closely to find them. They are very skilled question askers, helpers, and friends. If you have a WikiGoat friend, try to keep that friend forever.
If you are a WikiGoat and wish to identify yourself so you are not mistaken for a vandal, feel free to put {{User:UBX/WikiGoat}} on your user page:
