A WikiBee, or WikiPhila, is a WikiFauna that loves to fix articles and make them perfect. While they are exact and precise editors, they can often be overly pedantic.

While WikiBees are generally friendly and constructive, they are very protective of their articles, and may attack if their articles are messed with. Their perfectionist nature can sometimes cause them, if they are in a bad mood, to reprimand editors whose editing does not live up to their stringent ideals. If an editor continuously edits in a way that irritates them, they may even attempt to sting them.

Because WikiBees like precision, they tend to get along with other fellow WikiBees. They also like to gravitate towards other friendly WikiFauna. In an Australian Wiki exhibit, WikiBees were found playing a game similar to catch, in which they would chase each other to different articles and see who could edit them the fastest.
