WP:EPD

This page in a nutshell: If your EPD is lower than 50, then you are a failure at Wikipedia. Despair!

EPD, or edits per day, is the most important number for Wikipedia editors, more than what MPH and MPG are for a car. Take an average of your EPD over a 3-day, 5-day, 7-day, or 14-day period. If this number falls below 50 per day, consider taking a wikibreak. Or leave, because you are a failure!

If you edit too much, you might purposely stop editing for a day to prove that you are not a geek, even if it means editing with an IP. But if you do it with an IP, stay clear of controversial articles because people may mistake hiding your addiction as sockpuppetry.^[1]

^ If you do this, you are really just a geek in denial. You will become even more of a geek when you realize you have to make up for the lost day of editing.
