Edna Bambrick is the name of an older age woman that often comes to this site with every chance she has. Supposedly, she mostly comes on to report any violations whatsoever on anyone she can. As I heard, the reason why she does it is because she feels as if she is making the Internet safe. After a while, she became the most popular individual (celebrity) on this site because she was the most hated as well. Many people then tried to report on her with any reason[s] they can find whatsoever and I believe they succeeded in it. Yet, it didn't stop there, because her celebrity status continued on within the site, even though she might have been suspended from here. As a comical sense, some people thought it would be humorous to impersonate her on the site by creating screennames with her name as it, also her picture included as well. Not long after, it got out of control, because it sparked the 'Edna Phenomena', whereby many more users followed in-step by replicating the same antics as the original pranksters. This is when many 'Edna imposters'; sprung up all throughout the site, as it continues still, thus creating a cult. Yahoo! had taken the action by suspending as many suspicious Yahoo! Answers accounts that is the sole intent of impersonating Edna. Yahoo! did the same as well with questions pertaining to the subject of Edna. There are many of the 'Edna imposters' remaining somewhere out there parading around while impersonating Edna. Also, it continues that many people who do not know who Edna is, asks about the whole 'Edna phenomena'. That is so far all I know about the whole phenomena.

Edna is a ladys name and a well known Edna is Dame Edna Everage whom you can see and get to know about from her website at the link given below.
It's also a dimunative for EDucational Network Australia, details of whicha re at the second link below.
It's also the name of an MP 3 Server, details available at the third link provided below.
There are tons of other Ednas like the Edna Valley Winery and ladies be the name of Edna; but I think what you mean is Dame Edna Everage or the EDNA project.
All the best.

Edna is an Internet troll who has been spamming the Answer boards. It is creating accounts faster than Yahoo can knock it out. Sooner or later Yahoo is going to block its IP address. Untill then, it has the attention of all the little lemmings.

She was a lady on Yahoo answers that was asking a lot of random questions, like "can I borrow your hula-hoop?" They deleted her, though.
