If you think an edit I made is POV-pushing, unfair, unfounded, or otherwise unacceptable, please

Welcome[edit]

It is the singular duty of an encyclopedia editor to consolidate, clarify, and regurgitate historical facts. Too often editors here become so caught up in labels, names and hyperbole that they begin to see themselves as crusaders for truth. But we do not fight for truth; we fight for historical fact. And there is a very big difference between the two. Historical fact is the only thing that has any place in an encyclopedia. We may believe, or even know, in our heart of hearts, that this thing or that is true or false, directly contradicting what is commonly accepted historical fact. But every personal experience is different. Every personal belief is tainted. Only through broad consensus can anything useful arise. And while it may not be true in the truest sense, it is still fact.

Me[edit]

I probably have between 500 and 1000 edits as anonymous... I spent the last two years or so frequenting Wikipedia fixing typos, removing POV and generally being a quiet janitor. I only recently decided to create an account. I don't bother trying to get credit for those contributions because it's not about props here, it's about the work. But since you're already reading this, I'm telling you to provide a sense of history.
