For holding your ground against a long and tedious siege of sockpuppets, and keeping your cool even when the attacks got personal, I, Shunpiker, hereby award you this Wiki Wiffle Bat. 12:51, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Goals for wikipedia

• I'm a member of the Harmonious editing club supporting Wikipedia:Revert only when necessary, and Wikipedia:Forum for Encyclopedic_Standards. Wikipedia v1.0 can be a high quality collaborative publication.
• As a university student, I study psychology, philosophy and have a strong interest in computer science and other cognitive sciences. Currently I'm undertaking an interdisciplinary cognitive science program which involves study in computer science, linguistic, psychology, and artificial intelligence.
• I have worked on a series of articles related to psychotherapy and interpersonal communication including Neuro-linguistic programming and linguist John Grinder.
