We all have a philosophy on wikipedia, this is a very natural part of contributing here. The following pieces below are a list of my own personal thoughts, opinions. These of course are not official wikipedia guidelines — they are are

I honestly believe that Wikipedia might as well be the best website ever. I know some will scoff at this notion but honestly think about it — many, many different nationality's and people come together to create an expand human knowledge — regardless of religion, race, political ideology and age. I don't think that every one here realizes that but it is the honest truth. I have seen so much good here it is unbelievable, people helping out others in their time of need — I could list names here but it would go on forever. I am sure some of you know what I am talking about. Other good things of wikipedia are the many featured articles, the featured lists and even the good articles. Also the community here is very strong and this helps make this place a saner, happier and over all more enjoyable place to be. This is what wikipedia is and what it needs to be.
We all know our opposites, heavy and light, hot and cold, day and night, good and evil, light and darkness and etc. So if there is an obvious good of wikipedia there is a hidden evil of wikipedia. The bad of wikipedia is actually quite large — the countless hours of vandalism reverting, the cruel edit wars, Spam removal, countless unreferenced articles, long and heated wars created by trolls, large and heated debates between editors, countless and obvious biting and the list goes on. But this will always be overshadowed by wikipedia's greatness. I understand that the bad might never go away but if every body works together it will be destroyed and we shall live in harmony forever.
I am currently not an administrator but I would like to become one, this means that as of right now I can not, delete articles, block users, protect and semi-protect pages nor can edit protected pages. Also I am not a Bureaucrat but would like to become one, this means that I can not, change usernames, flag or un-flag bots, or change the rights of a user (admin promotion). I would also like to become part of the Arbitration Commitee even though my chances of earning those ability's are slim due to my age I still aspire to be part in that particular process.
