1. You do not own Wikipedia. You CAN get demoted. I do know the boss who knows the boss of the boss who knows [[Jimbo Wales]]. If you think I'm bluffing, test me.

2. Do not patronize regular users; be nice.

3. Read well ''before'' you make decisions. Your so-called "majority" decisions might be good for a group of doctors during your brain surgery, but not in a court of law. Reasonable doubt means that the defendant article goes free.

4. Do not show-off your insightful and deep knowledge of the Wikipedia official guidelines. This does not impress me; on the contrary -- it only proves your arrogance, and that you cannot be bothered to explain your point.

5. [[Patience]] is a virtue, especially for people who understand that writing is a process of rewriting. Be patient, especially when other users tell you that they are currently rewriting something.

6. [[WP:NPOV]]? Yes, right, but if the article is about [[Albert Einstein]], lack of NPOV does not mean that the article/subject should be deleted. It should be edited and enhanced, so be my guest - simply do it instead of complaining.

7. Lack of citations? {{fact}} Again, see above. God created the world in 7 days: I can cite the bible, but hey, that's not a link right?

8. [http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&rls=DVFA,DVFA:1970--2,DVFA:en&q=%22It+does+not+take+a+lot+of+brains%22 It does not take a lot of brains] to tag articles and complain about them. It takes a lot more brains to invest time and energy in ''[[writing]]'' or ''[[editing]]'' them. Be constructive.

9. Avoid duplicity. Implement your own standards upon yourself. This excludes [[Jimbo Wales]], of course, who can write an article about himself that reads like a resume.

10. Be knowledgeable or go away. If you don't know anything about the subject, move on. Do not meddle in subjects that are foreign to you!

11. If you live in [[America]]: keep in mind that most of the world, i.e. - most of humanity - lives outside of it. Behave appropriately. The English version of Wikipedia is not for Americans only, it is meant for the world.

John Hyams is a regular Wikipedia user and he makes no fuss about being one.

I am here to contribute, as much as I can, to the best of my ability.


No star badges please (good or bad): don't congratulate yourself too much about being able to give badges to other users. Go get yourself a life, buy your kid an ice cream.


A message to the Administrators:
