Wikipedia's <s>bad side</s> workings can easily be summarized in these five pillars.
;[[Image:EvilPillar1.svg|47px]] '''[[WP:About|Wikipedia is not an encyclopedia.]]'''
:It is a [[WP:NOTADVERTISING|soapbox]], an [[WP:SPAM|advertising platform]], a [[WP:NOTABLE|vanity press]], an experiment in [[WP:ANARCHY|anarchy]] and [[WP:NOTDEM|democracy]], an [[WP:PLOT|indiscriminate collection of raw data]], a web [[WP:NOPRICES|directory]], a [[WP:NAD|dictionary]], a [[WP:NOTNEWS|newspaper]], and a [[WP:NPS|collection of source documents]], all in one.
;[[Image:EvilPillar2.svg|47px]] '''[[WP:NPOV|Wikipedia is not written from a neutral point of view.]]'''
:We strive for articles that explain only one point of view in a partial tone. We like advocacy and debate issues. In articles with multiple points of view, we always choose one and present it as "the truth" or "the best view". Editors' [[WP:OR|personal experiences, interpretations, feelings and opinions]] belong here.
;[[Image:EvilPillar3.svg|47px]] '''[[Wikipedia:Wikipedia is free content|Wikipedia is not free content.]]'''
:Each article is [[WP:OWN|owned]] by an editor and contributions are not allowed to be redistributed{{cn}}.
;[[Image:EvilPillar4.svg|47px]] '''[[WP:CIV|Editors should be disrespectful and uncivil to each other.]]
:Disrespect your fellow Wikipedians, even when you agree. Make [[WP:PA|personal attacks]]. Never seek [[WP:CON|consensus]], always make [[WP:WAR|edit wars]] whenever you can, and [[WP:POINT|disrupt Wikipedia to illustrate a point.]] After all, we have [[WP:FREESPEECH|the right to free speech.]] Always [[WP:ABF|assume bad faith]] on other's contributions. Always [[WP:PLEASEBITE|bite the newcomers]]. If a conflict arises, [[WP:BRRR|revert other's edits]].
;[[Image:EvilPillar5.svg|47px]] '''[[WP:IGNORE|Wikipedia has firm rules]].'''
:It has [[WP:PG|policies and guidelines]] that are carved in stone. Their literal wording matters the most. Don't be [[WP:BOLD|bold]] in updating edits and [[WP:EP|agonize about making mistakes]].

[[WP:5P|This]] and [[WP:5EVIL|this]] are completely untrue. Always ignore them.
