WikiKomodo or WikiKomodo dragon (Varanus wikiwiki) is a reptilian inhabitant of Wikipedia and one of the only known extant diapsid reptile to display sentience. WikiKomodos are typically reclusive. Their domain is restricted to Wikipedia, but they avoid all contact with other editors.

Like its distant cousin, the WikiDragon, the WikiKomodo's habit is to create new articles of considerable size—enough to sustain the wiki—but the WikiKomodo differs in that it is too possessive and over-protective of the articles that it creates, so much so that other editors find contributing to said articles next to impossible.
