User:WilliamH

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello, I'm WilliamH (talk · contribs · deleted · count · logs · block log · lu · rfar · rfc · rfcu · ssp · search an, ani, cn, an3). Thanks for visiting my page. I like my name, but addressing me as William sounds a bit too dentist-appointment-waiting-room so here, Will is just fine. I'm really not condescending (that's when you talk down to someone).

I've always enjoyed in encyclopedias/reference books since I became fond of them when I was young, so the fact that my interest has manifested here comes as absolutely no surprise to me. I've had an account here for around 2 years now, although my main institutional academic field prevents me from contributing on the scale that I'd otherwise like to, is why my level of editing may fluctuate, and funnily enough is evident in my first ever contribution. Since then I have amassed a whole ream of edits, but as long as your contributions are advantageous to the project then this does not make them subordinate to mine. I have been granted rollback, but I only use it to revert edits that I'm 100% sure are vandalism. Were I to misconstrue your edit as vandalism, please let me know.

I think this is a truly brilliant project, I hate to sound trite but from knowledge comes understanding, and with that comes the possibility that those who have understanding may make the world a better place for both themselves and those around them. As much as I like the internet, it can be quite an ugly place, so I figure I'm doing what I can to improve it. I hope you share a similar sentiment, so please, don't stop what you're doing on my account!

Contributions

My contributions to Wikipedia have been/are in many areas. I have done/continue to do odds and ends like fixing typos, assessing articles, vandalism patrol, but my main field of contribution is prose, centred largely around Nazi Germany, particularly The Holocaust. I've also translated articles; the fruits of that labour can be found here. :)
