Dream of Zeal

I'm ZeaLitY, creator of the Chrono Compendium. I'm in the SPRINGTIME OF YOUTH!!! BEHOLD OBAMA:

In terms of Wiki philosophy, I'm flexible, and prefer to decide issues on a case-by-case basis with the education of readers in mind. I enjoy telling skeptics that I have authored featured articles on Wikipedia and arguing for the veracity of well-cited articles.

If I have three gripes about Wikipedia, the first is rampant copyright paranoia, and the second is the difficulty of finding help copyediting. Third, and most adverse, is prejudice against video games articles or copyrighted content in general by sanctimonious editors. I've blatantly ripped this template from Ryu Kaze, as he is no longer active.


Enhasa
I'm not the most active Wikipedian; mostly I just hit the watchlist and revert vandalism. I'll occasionally stop in, elevate something to Featured Article status, and disappear for a while.
Regular habits
I monitor and maintain Chrono series articles. I've got that neat "contact this guy for help" template on all their talk pages.
Current and upcoming work
  • Priority one is cleaning up my old Featured Articles and using the new TFA request system to get them on the main page (CT February 11, MNSG March 16, CC July 15, RD anytime).
  • I'd like to get The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest featured.
Materials used in my work
I deal with video game articles, so I use instruction manuals, Gamerankings, and even AccessBank and EBSCO. For the Real Adventures of Jonny Quest article, I spent a week digging through three years of newspaper articles to create my most comprehensive work yet. I have a Personal Sandboxand Article Sandbox.

WTF QUOTES
This has been rehashed over and over. If you go back and read the old conversations on the talk page, you will see that there was a very long argument for and against even including the word 'gridiron' in the article because it is an unknown term in the U.S. and Canada (where the sport is primarily played). Is the argument basically that all Wikipedia users in the U.S. and Canada need to search and search for football under some strange name they've never heard so a few Wikipedia users in Australia can find the Pele article faster? --Kainaw 01:05, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
