metapedian

plural metapedians

1. A Wikipedia editor who focuses on the social side of the project, such as participating in discussions or community events, rather than editing articles and contributing content.

   Users also move among different communities as they move from being a new user to an active user, or choose at any stage to exit the platform. Indeed it is not uncommon for many active users and metapedians to suffer burnout.
