Line 10:
On Wikipedia, you might find that they might want to merge, or even delete, an article you just launched. Or start adding those annoying [''[[Template:Context|citation needed]]''] tags to it. This may come off as mean... this could lead to you being confused by their apparent wikipersonas being so different. You've just been rumbled by '''Dr. Pedia and Mr. Trope''', though you might personally conclude Dr. Pedia to be more of the monster.
Please bear in mind Dr. Pedia isn't necessarily trying to be mean or formal. He or she is just attuned to the the two different styles of either wiki. They know what does and doesn't fly on [[Wikipedia]] and therefore try to be a good Wikipedian. Here, they know the (considerably more relaxed and flexible) "rules" and therefore write to that style instead. Think of Doctor Pedia as the ''Encyclopedia Galactica'' and Mr. Trope as the ''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy|Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]].''
Basically, it's all about knowing your context. Named after ''[[The Strange Case of Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde]]'', obviously.
