SEMI-RETIRED

This user is no longer very active on Wikipedia.

As of 17 June 2021, I will not be as active on Wikipedia due to loss of interest. Nowadays, I only participate in AfD or MfD discussions or, rarely, edit articles.

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

Five pillars

The fundamental principles of Wikipedia may be summarized in five "pillars":

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia

Wikipedia combines many features of general and specialized encyclopedias, almanacs, and gazetteers. Wikipedia is not a soapbox, an advertising platform, a social network, a vanity press, an experiment in anarchy or democracy, an indiscriminate collection of information, nor a web directory. It is not a dictionary, a newspaper, nor a collection of source documents, although some of its fellow Wikimedia projects are.

Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view

We strive for articles with an impartial tone that document and explain major points of view, giving due weight for their prominence. We avoid advocacy, and we characterize information and issues rather than debate them. In some areas there may be just one well-recognized point of view; in others we describe multiple points of view, presenting each accurately and in context rather than as "the truth" or "the best view". All articles must strive for verifiable accuracy with citations based on reliable sources, especially when the topic is controversial or is about a living person. Editors' personal experiences, interpretations, or opinions do not belong on Wikipedia.

Wikipedia is free content that anyone can use, edit, and distribute

All editors freely license their work to the public, and no editor owns an article – any contributions can and may be mercilessly edited and redistributed. Respect copyright laws and never plagiarize from any sources. Borrowing non-free media is sometimes allowed as fair use, but editors should strive to find free alternatives first.

Wikipedia's editors should treat each other with respect and civility

Respect your fellow Wikipedians, even when you disagree. Apply Wikipedia etiquette, and do not engage in personal attacks or edit wars. Seek consensus, and never disrupt Wikipedia to illustrate a point. Act in good faith, and assume good faith on the part of others. Be open and welcoming to newcomers. Should conflicts arise, discuss them calmly on the appropriate talk pages, follow dispute resolution procedures, and consider that there are 6,908,445 other articles on the English Wikipedia to improve and discuss.

Wikipedia has no firm rules

Wikipedia has policies and guidelines, but they are not carved in stone; their content and interpretation can evolve over time. The principles and spirit matter more than literal wording, and sometimes improving Wikipedia requires making exceptions. Be bold, but not reckless, in updating articles. And do not agonize over making mistakes: they can be corrected easily because (almost) every past version of each article is saved.

Notices

I use a normal signature in Twinkle help or wikiloves but other than that I use a coloured one. Please always refer to me as he if you can.

My Wikipedia Story

As a new user

I joined Wikipedia on 5 June 2020. On the same day, I made my first edit.

As a confirmed user

A week after joining Wikipedia, I made my tenth edit, making me a confirmed user. Two days later, I made my twentieth edit. On the same day, I edited a semi-protected article for the first time. On June 22, 2020, I got my first message. It was from Mattythewhite, warning me that I didn’t provide a reliable source for the article Sergio Agüero. The next day, I edited a pending changes protected page for the first time. The article was Jonny Evans. Shortly afterwards, I had a warning of being blocked from editing because I wasn’t citing a reliable source on the article Roberto Firmino. On July 12 I made my 90th edit and two days later I made my 100th edit. Just over a month later, I made my 200th edit on the page Gargoyles (comics). On August 23, I was thanked for the first time, by BenMacDui. On August 28, I made my 300th edit on my user page. On 1 October I made my 400th edit on Ankara River.

As an extended confirmed user

Just five days after making my 400th edit, I made my 500th edit on the page Talk:Central District (Lenjan County). On the same day, I edited an extended confirmed protected article for the first time, on Eniola Aluko. On 8 October I joined the Wikipedia Adventure. Click here to have a go. On the same day, I was thanked for the fifth time by Deepfriedokra. On 25 October I made my 1,000th edit on the page Recognition of same-sex unions in Estonia. Nine days later I was thanked for the tenth time by GeometryDashFan12. By 5 December I had created more than 100 global accounts. I enabled my Twinkle preferences on 23 December 2020. In the beginning of January the following year I made my 2000th edit on Jana Pérez reverting vandalism. On 30 January I installed HotCat. But the same day I got given a one-week block for making bad reverts on vandalism. I began to slow down and check when reverting vandalism after the block expired. On 8 February I made my 3,000th edit tagging the article Dowzariv. I stopped actively editing in early April.

Topics I edit

Most of the articles I edit are related to football. All of the pages I edited were either related to me or football until 2 July 2020.
