Some explanation on why I may consider ending my WP career

You might have noticed why I placed {{Considering retirement}} on my user page. Video games (especially Minecraft) and coding have been taking up a lot of my time in my life, and I may not have enough time to contribute hundreds of edits a day as I used to (it happens sometimes). As time progresses, grades become more important and are a factor in seeing if I can get into university. Therefore, I have to spend more time doing assignments and studying for tests and eventually, exams. WP used to be addicting last summer/autumn until video games became more addicting to me than WP. As a result, the number of edits I've made have decreased from my peak. In other words, I'm slowly losing interest in editing WP. I have finished my first year of secondary school. I'm doing very well there and should expect to get to university at this rate, and I want to stay that way. That said, being on WP during class may deter my goal of getting to university, and my school may ban the use of WP when I am in grade 11/12 so I may not edit much there. I may use WP during class time when I have free time. There is also some IRL stuff I have to do as an adolescent as I prepare for adulthood. I have to do chores for my parents, know how to do adult stuff, etc. I plan to become a computer programmer after I finish post-secondary school. In short, editing as an adolescent (especially in school) is not easy. Most important task(s) to do before ending my career here: Finish task 2 of lint fixing (approximate time: ~1 month)

Thanks Sheep8144402! Great job!

Thanks for your contributions! I'm a novice WP editor and joined to correct a potentially libelous claim on a biography article. Your work corrected misinformation from the same possible vandal/troll? posting as 71.183.100.76 and inspired me to take easy edit action. Thank you!

Happy to see the bot running

I'm thrilled to see your bot working its way through that mountain of TWA page errors. Keep it up! – Jonesey95 (talk) 23:32, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

Task 2 update

I'm hoping to get task 2 done by the end of April this year. Hopefully when I have more time I'll finish off it. Sheep (talk • he/him) 14:36, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
