From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wikipedia is supposed to be an encyclopedia. As such, it is supposed to present factual information on a variety of topics; this is supposed to be done from a neutral perspective and is supposed to be based upon authoritative sources that are not connected to Wikipedia itself.

In light of this, my primary Wikipedian goals are to (1) neutralize any statments that reflect a biased point of view, and (2) call for unsourced statements that sound authoritative to become associated with an authoritative source.

I also enjoy correcting bad grammar and rewording awkward statements, and consider such contributions to be important to the overall viability of Wikipedia as a source of general knowledge.

Finally, as a resident of and advocate for the City of Buffalo, New York, I am interested in ensuring that articles that address topics related to Buffalo reflect and compliment simliar articles related to other cities, especially those in the Great Lakes and Rust Belt regions of North America.
