From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

“ I can NOT emphasize this enough. There seems to be a terrible bias among some editors that some sort of random speculative 'I heard it somewhere' pseudo information is to be tagged with a 'needs a cite' tag. Wrong. It should be removed, aggressively, unless it can be sourced. This is true of all information, but it is particularly true of negative information about living persons. ”

I am an immediatist and a deletionist. I primarily edit articles related to evolutionary psychology, psychometrics, transhumanism, and the Singularity.

[edit] Advice to fellow editors

  • Learn to love WP:NOR, WP:V, and WP:NPOV.
  • Write as tersely as you can.
  • Don't create subheadings for just one or two paragraphs.
  • "See also" and "External links" sections are for links that are not already in the article body. Instead of adding links to the end, discuss their targets in a relevant section.
