hm. since the suffix is only -ista, -n- is presumably only there to resemble fashionista, and both wordage and wordiness are real english words, i.. don't know. popular use says 'wordanista,' 'wordinista,' then 'wordonista.' i wonder if it was shown in writing when stephen colbert used it.

Maybe they need to have two separate meanings then. I... don't know, either.

My guess (and that is all it is) is that these -ista words came into Gringo American usage by analogy with "Sandinista" (a supporter of the leftist Nicaraguan Sandinista National Liberation Front), a word that became common in the 1980s. So I would go with wordinista.
