Tentonbricks lives in St. Louis, Missouri. Raised in Texas (and still a Texan at heart), I grew up in West Texas (specifically, Dumas). I joined Wikipedia back in 2006, but am just now becoming more active in it. As such, there is still a lot I have to learn. I am open to criticism, both giving and receiving, as long as it is constructive and civil.
As a relatively new editor, I think it is incredibly important for all to be nice to everyone, but particularly to new editors, who should be encouraged, rather than discouraged, to contribute to this enterprise. That said, they should also be guided to contribute in ways which follow the appropriate standards and guidelines. There were several senior editors who took me under their wing, so to speak, to guide me through my formative months on Wikipedia. I hope to do the same in the future.
