Justin Anthony Knapp e Wikipedia

Justin Anthony Knapp (born November 18, 1982) is an often-unemployed Wikipedia editor living in Indianapolis. He recently became the first person to make 1 million edits to the site. When the Speedway native posted his millionth edit to Wikipedia on April 15, 2012 - ironically, it was an update to his own user page quietly announcing the milestone to the Wiki community - it sat unnoticed for three days. Then an editor with the alias “Tony the Tiger” saw the post and wrote a public congratulatory note. A few others followed. Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales came across it and named April 20 “Justin Knapp Day,” an honor he bestowed only three other times, to the site’s original programmers. indianapolismonthly.
