From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'm no longer on a wikibreak, but I'm not sure how I'm going to approach this project...
Assume good faith. Until someone shows themselves otherwise. Some people have no real interest in the truth, as even a cursory glance at Talk:Global warming will demonstrate. As you can probably guess, I'm still bitter about an article (still) dominated by someone who has strong opinions. See Talk:Ahmed Zaoui to see what I'm talking about. I probably shouldn't be here.
Rant over.
I'm a Wikipedia user from Wellington, Aotearoa and recently finished Honours Politics student at Victoria University of Wellington.
It's my opinion that all biographical entries for people born after 1985 should be deleted on sight =) - they're almost all plain worthless... I wish I could say otherwise, but I'm beginning to believe in the concept of notability.
I also have accounts on the Babel languages listed here (as Mutacion on es, and my Scots is actually near zero!):

[edit] Concerns
WP:CSBOT Help counter systematic bias! (I'm guilty too!) Things happen outside Europe, NZ, Australia and Nth America... there's more here on Futurama than cities with millions of people...
WikiProject Countering systemic bias open tasks This project creates and improves neglected articles.

[edit] Userboxes
I completely agree with Jimbo that userboxes of a certain nature are bad for the project in that they encourage people here (and to come here) to express their opinions. So the boxes should go. I actually think that they should all go, as there is little point in being able to say you like H2G2 and not being able to talk about rather large parts of your belief system or things important to you.
