User:I'll bring the food

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I dislike blank pages innit

[edit] a bit about me.

I don't have a phD. Nor do i pretend anywhere that i do. I don't support anything except verifiable edits. If you want to change an incorrect fact in an article with no sources, just delete the incorrect information, don't "fix" it without an in-line citation for the replacement info. I don't intend to ever become an administrator; so if I like you it's because you're likeable; not because I'm after something. You can't have my name. But i'm not anonymous. I'm very much here. I like several wiki editors attitude and I'm more than happy to name drop them here if I get the free time.


[edit] Funny comments I found on talk pages.

From Talk:Rick Astley:

  • "Does Rick Astley have extra vocal cords? 168.209.98.35 04:10, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)
    If you're speaking of the deep and forceful presence of his unusual voice, the word is that he purposefully enjoys an extremely high fiber diet and refrains from having a bowel movement for at least 48 hours before a singing engagement."

[edit] Please note this is my user page, not my talk page. Don't put your comments here.

Here is something for your User page. --Missingno. 16:21, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Dunno if you covet these pretties, but here's a barnstar for sticking to your guns on the Category: Whistle register singers and other issues. --Marysunshine 00:06, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My thoughts on Wiki Policies, Guidelines and Essays

  • Wikipedia:Do not insult the vandals - Insulting a vandal makes it worse. If you accidentally caution a n00b for "vandalising," which was in fact just not knowing the Wiki policies & guidelines you make it even worse if it was accompanied by an insult.
  • Wikipedia:No angry mastodons - Wikipedia has no angry elephant-like creatures after you as a source of food. You do not need to bang out angry retorts to opposing statements. Have you ever done that? Did you feel like you're buzzing after doing it? You had the fight-or-flight response. People don't have to agree about a topic to collaborate on a great article. All it takes is mutual respect and a willingness to abide by referenced sources and site policy. If you think you're right, dig up the very best evidence you can find and put that in the article. Let the other side's best evidence be a challenge to raise your own standards and always bear the big picture in mind: we're here to provide information for nonspecialists. I work with many opposing editors in day to day wiki work, but they add variety to the wikipedia. We are not an isolated island. Also remember to allow another editor a graceful retreat from a momentary lapse.
  • Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons - This policy states "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth". In an article on a living person the text should be verifiable even if you do not like it, text should not be sugar-coated truths or original research.
