From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I don't have that many things to say but these are some precisions about me to help understand my contributions and maybe my mistakes.

I have used Wikipedia for a long time, not for essays because without wanting to be rude, Wikipedia is not really a good source for me in this case, but more for my personal interests for which it has been very useful. I am so confident in Wikipedia that when it happens that a page is a stub, I'm feeling very disappointed .

But I only register some time ago and I am more a punctual editor,which means that I edit when I happen to find a page that I can improve with my knowledge and I don't know yet how to use some Wikipedia tools as well as some conventions.

I also apologise for my bad grammatical structures or if I use words that do not exist in English. English is only my second language so even if I try to use a dictionary and to proof-read several times my contributions, some mistakes can still be left.

One of my regret is that you have to register in every Wikipedia in a different language. Even if I'm registered in the English-speaking, I would have to register again in the French-speaking (my mother tongue, by the way) one where someone already use a very similar user name. I understand that it's not possible to create a unique registration and a unique user name for all wikipedias but it's still something I regret.

My main contributions until now (which I have to say, are quite limited) concern the pages of 'The Hollow' (a book by Agatha Christie), 'UFO Baby' ('Daa Daa Daa! a Japanese anime), 'My wife is a gangster 3 (a Korean movie) and 'La Petite Fadette' (a French novel). I'm also watching these pages and I have been very happy to see the collaborative work, which is the basis of Wikipedia, in action. Especially in the case of 'Daa Daa Daa !' (sorry, 'UFO Baby'...). I added the list of the episodes I have and some days after, someone else added the titles in Japanese and improved the presentation and after that, another person added the missing episodes and moved the list to a new page. That was really good to see.

If you have any problems with one of my contributions or would like to ask me something or to warn me because I'm regularly making the same mistakes, feel free to use my talk page. Please assume my good faith . I'm trying to learn from my mistakes. For example, after I edited the page of 'The Hollow', someone had to edit after me to correct all my typos, I felt so ashamed :). Therefore, I am now checking several times, using the preview tool, that I didn't leave any. But Errare Humanum Est.

Also, I just started uni again so I may be inactive for some time.
