WikiSheep (Ovis wikipediensis) is an animal that roams the fields of Wikipedia. Its very cuddly and gentle, but can eat articles that are prohibited.
Differences from WikiGoat
[edit]Unlike its stubborn cousin, WikiSheep can eat prohibited articles without noticing it. It can come from "being sheepish", or not knowing that it's against Wikipedias rules to eat a good article.
What to do
[edit]If you see a Wikisheep eating a good, or close-to-being good article, try to be a shepherd and redirect it to eat more vulnerable articles: it will listen. Don't provoke it, otherwise a WikiSheep might turn into a WikiRam. If that happens, contact a butcher, which will slaughter it.
