I spend most of my time working on book articles, authors, and bibliographies about topics I'm interested in. The work I am most proud of are the [[Bibliography of Russian history|bibliographies related to Russian and Soviet history]] I've created. I have also put considerable work into [[Bibliography of Los Angeles]] and [[Sexual violence in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine]].

The subjects I am most involved with are related to Russia the [[Soviet Union]], World War I, II, and Cold War, and generally the swath of nations and peoples that run from Poland, the Baltics, and Russia, running southeast through Turkey and the Caucasus, Central Asia, and ending in Pakistan, northern India, western China, and Mongolia.

I enjoy working on the navigation elements and interconnectedness of Wikipedia, such as: Navigation lists such as indexes, outlines, timelines and years pages; See also and navigation hat notes; navigation templates and navigation sidebars.

I am a self appointed maintenance angel for [[Timothy (given name)]], [[Tim (given name)]], [[Timmy (given name)]]; every Tim, Timmy, and Timothy has a place, and every Tim, Timmy, and Timothy should be in their proper place. This is critical for the survival of Wikipedia.

I watch articles generally related to:
*'''History''': the history of Russia and the Russian empire, the Soviet Union, and the Soviet bloc; the history of eastern and central Europe; Central Asia and the Caspian Sea; 20th century Germany and the Holocaust; World War I, II and the Cold War; the Sino-Japanese wars; general United States history.
*'''Other''': Los Angeles and California, UCLA and Los Angeles City College; The Doors, Velvet Underground, and Traffic; gold and silver age Russian literature; golden age science fiction; fascism and communism; Dungeons & Dragons and tabletop RPGs; Commodore PET and Altair 8800; accessibility and blindness; Blue holes; whiskey and tea; warships; colors, especially blue; bibliographies; glossaries. <small>[[#Topics/Articles that interest me|...]]</small>

Much of the information here is to help my memory.

==Important thoughts, random musings, personal confessions, and fun facts==
* In 2018, I had a actual heart attack while listening to an orange monster promote fascism and white supremacy.
* Don't worry, [[Rod Sterling]] is actually standing just out of sight.
* I once found a [[coconut]] in [[Mercia]].
* ''"Once ya, ya get to know these parts, you never lack for somethin ta do. People always ask me, "Why I stay here?" I tell'm I stay cuz I like it better here than I would anywharez else."'' {{emdash}} Herb Jones, [[The Legend of Boggy Creek]].<ref>{{cite web |last1=Jones |first1=Herb |title=Herb Jones tells it like it is |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fr5FBC-ST7I}}</ref>
* I have [[Arachnophobia]], [[musophobia]], and [[Ophidiophobia]]. Spiders, rats and snakes will cause me.
* Wikipedia is a creation worthy of the gnomes of Ak'Anon and as challenging for a newbie as Crushbone.
* I'm convinced I was a librarian in a former life; maybe not a good one.
* I routinely misspell "guarantee"; I have tried my whole life to stop, but cannot. It is my great shame.
:: I also have this problem with: "memoir", "Caucasus", ...
* “He knows that there’s no better way in the world to aggravate somebody who’s trying to make it hard for you than by acting like you’re not bothered.”
* My partnership is 25% Lucy and Ricky, 25% Harold and Kumar, 25% Odd Couple, and 25% Basil and Sybil.

==Quotes from people much wiser than I will ever be==
* ''The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy, instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. Through violence, you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth. Through violence, you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate. Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.'' {{mdash}}Martin Luther King.<ref>{{cite book|author=Martin Luther King Jr.|title= Where Do We Go from Here: Chaos or Community?|year=1967|page=67}}</ref>

* ''"The Russian Revolution was the most successful criminal conspiracy in history. The takeover of an entire nation by a shameless huckster supported by a hostile foreign power. And the revolution was also an object lesson in how liberals can lose, and lose catastrophically, from a position of great advantage, if they are divided in the face of a ruthlessly ideological foe."''<ref>* {{Cite web|date=June 3, 2017 |last = Gove| first = Michael| title = The Russian Revolution: A New History by Sean McMeekin| accessdate = 2021-01-24| url = https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/the-russian-revolution-a-new-history-by-sean-mcmeekin-j2v38w6z3}}</ref>

* ''"Civilization is in a race between education and catastrophe. Let us learn the truth and spread it as far and wide as our circumstances allow."'' H.G. Wells

* “They neglect their own children so that the children of others will be cared for; they live in substandard housing so that other homes will be shiny and perfect; they endure privation so that inflation will be low and stock prices high,” she wrote. “To be a member of the working poor is to be an anonymous donor, a nameless benefactor, to everyone.” [[Barbara Ehrenreich]]<ref>{{cite web |title=Barbara Ehrenreich, 'Nickel and Dimed' author and activist, dies at 81 |url=https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/barbara-ehrenreich-nickel-dimed-author-activist-dies-81-rcna46150 |website=NBC News}}</ref>

==Things I've learned to live by on Wikipedia (or try to)==
* Think before you type. Then type. Then think again before you press Publish. ''"If you see a man hasty with his words, there is more hope for a fool than for him."'' Mishlei 29:20
* When in doubt, don't press Publish.
* If you're uncertain, Ask.
* When you're wrong, you're wrong. Accept it gracefully.
* I try and abide by a personal 2RR rule (except in cases such as vandalism, copyright, or BLP violations). If I've reverted twice and things continue, I'll leave it to another editor to pick up where I stop. If it's important someone else will come along. If important or the article is not watched, [[WP:3O]] or [[WP:DR]] is a better forum for resolving the dispute than moving towards [[WP:EW]] territory.
* Think if something can be Improved, rather than Reverted or Deleted. If it can, then either Improve it or leave it for someone else.
* Don't engage in petty reverting. See above.
* Sometimes it's best to disengage from a quarrel and return later rather than keeping it going. ''"Just as without wood, the fire goes out, so without a grumbler the quarrel quiets down."'' Mishlei 26:20
* Use polite and meaningful but short edit summaries.
* Use warning templates sparingly. A note often produces better results.
* Some topics I am too emotionally close to and I choose generally not to edit in those areas. At best it will be frustrating, at worst it will result in a ban or block. Everyone has to know their limitations. Wikipedia should be enjoyable and edifying, not frustrating and exasperating.
* Don't stick your nose into situations you know nothing about. ''"Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt."'' Abraham Lincoln
* Don't stir the pot.
* Don't hold grudges.
* Not every editor is able to constructively edit/review every article. Know what articles are best left to others.
* When you've dug yourself into a [[Law of holes|hole]], that's a [[WP:BATTLEGROUND|battleground]]; stop digging and [[WP:DISENGAGE|just walk away]].
* [[Flogging a dead horse|Beating a dead horse]] with a lead pipe is messy and unnecessary; [[Wikipedia:Drop the stick and back slowly away from the horse carcass|just walk away]]
* There is often no right or wrong answer. If '''you don't''' feel strongly about something and others '''do feel strongly''', you probably have better things to do than arguing about it.

==Simple Wikipedia things I wish I knew sooner==
* When I first started editing Wikipedia, I was under the impression that it was a mellow, cordial, quite place to do something. <:)=
* I couldn't figure out why the ''Thank'' option appeared sometimes, but other times was unavailable. It was because I had a VPN running.
* You don't need to have the ''Page Mover'' user right to move a page. The right just gives you the ability to move without leaving a redirect.
* There is a glossary of all those Wikipedian abbreviations people use at [[Wikipedia:Glossary]] and [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia abbreviations]]
* When you see [[WP:!VOTE|!vote]] it doesn't mean a ''Negative'' or ''Oppose'' vote. It means ''Not'' voting and refers to the process of consensus-building as opposed to polling.
* [[Wikipedia:Twinkle|Twinkle]] is the most helpful thing on Wikipedia.
* [[Wikipedia:Tools]] and [[Wikipedia:User scripts/List]].
* [[User:Ark25/RefScript|RefScript]] automatically creates refs from webpages.
* On Wikipedia, if something sounds straightforward and self-explanatory, you're wrong, it's not.
* There are important differences between ''[[wp:policy|policies]]'' and a ''[[wp:guideline|guidelines]]'' and an ''[[WP:essay|essays]]''. They are not the synonmyns. Editors use the terms far too loosely and interchangeably, sometimes unintentionally and innocently, other times...?
* [[Special:CategoryTree]] - displays a tree for a category
* When you remove vandalism with an inappropriate edit summary, make sure to remove the default edit summary on your revert, or else the inappropriate edit summary will appear on the revert and in your user contributions.

==Things about articles I do not like==
# Excessive inline references per [[WP:OVERKILL]]. It makes it hard to read an article. If they are needed, they should be encapsulated or bundled [[WP:BUNDLING]] in a footnote with an explanation.
# Too many sections [[MOS:OVERSECTION]]. Article creation is not a contest to see how many sections an editor can cram into a stub.
# Substubs. These are not articles: they are PAGE SPAM. Shame on any editor that creates them and doesn't expand them (unless there is a good reason); if an article is worth creating, an editor should write 350 words about it, create a couple of incoming links, add two references, add categories. Minimum effort.
# The idea that having a separate article is always somehow better. Nothing is improved if content is unnessarily fragmented and placed in a more obsure stand alone article.
# Completely empty sections; if an editor creates a section, they should at least write one sentence about that section's topic.
# That its much easier to be considered notable as an athlete or entertainer, than it is to be considered notable as an academic, scientist, or author.

==The worst part of Wikipedia==
The seemingly endless, repetitive, and ultimately meaningless time sink discussions where editors constantly repeat themselves over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. Usually accompanied by walls of text that begin to blur into each other like a mental quagmire. See all the move requests related the Russo-Ukrainian war or renaming Turkey, or any high level article about Armenia or Azerbaijan as an example.
===The second worst part of Wikipedia===
Walls of text. In any and every context except your own user page.
:Don't like them. Don't read them. Don't encourage them. Don't build them. Shun those that do.
::Yes occasionally lots of text is needed, and when it is it should still be as concise and organized as possible.
:'''Nothing''' justifies >500 words in a paragraph.
:'''Nothing''' justifies >50 words in a sentence.
:'''Nothing''' justifies >10 sentences in a paragraph.
::Violating the above should be a Wikipedia felony, the offenders beaten mercilessly with rabid squirrels until they repent. Habitual offenders should be sentenced to live with feral cats and no wifi.

==Serious things==
===How to evaluate claims of off-wiki status as an expert or scholar===
* If someone feels the need to tell you they are ''expert'' or ''scholar'', they are rarely an ''expert'' or ''scholar''.
* If someone feels the need to tell you they are ''expert'' or ''scholar'', and therefore you should respect their opinion/contribution even though they don't have [[WP:RS]], they are very rarely an ''expert'' or ''scholar''.
* If someone feels the need to tell you they are ''expert'' or ''scholar'', and therefore you should respect their opinion/contribution even though they don't have [[WP:RS]], and they have ''"Dr."'' or ''"Ph.D."'' anywhere in their username, you can be completely certain beyond any doubt they are not an ''expert'' or ''scholar''.

===The Unspoken Sixth Pillar of Wikipedia===
''A stub article shall be created for each and every male football (soccer) player, who has ever been on a roster for a national team for even one game, regardless of how obscure they are or unlikely it is that the stub will ever be expanded, if even one bare entry in a statistical database site can be found as a source for the aforementioned male football (soccer) player. If challenged, [[WP:NFOOTBALL]] shall be invoked with the authority of the gods to override any objection, policy or guideline.''

''Anyone who foolishly deviates from this sacred standard, even ever so slightly or inadvertently, will be declared an apostate and banished forever, doomed to create stub articles for baseball players.''

===Proposed new CSD criteria===
The following is a list of proposed new CSD criteria that will make everything much more interesting.
* A8. No indication of importance (things you don't understand and don't feel the need to try)
:: Wikipedia is not about learning new things and its just rude for someone to create an article that you don't understand.
* A12. Stuff you don't like.
:: Applies to stuff you don't like or don't agree with, or stuff that makes you uncomfortable, hungry, restless, or fatigued, regardless of [[WP:N]] or [[WP:RS]]. Because Wikipedia is here for you.
* A13. Stuff someone you don't like is enjoying working on, so you want it deleted.
:: Applies to people who have offended you in the past, may offend you in the future, or someone you just have a funny feeling about. Also can be applied if someone you don't know and have never interacted with, is obviously bothering/harassing/stalking you, even if you are uncertain which editor is doing this.
* A14. Too many typoes mispellings or grammer errors.
:: Available only to [[WP:WikiGnome|WikiGnomes]] and to [[WP:WikiElf|WikiElves]] helping them. Because Grammer Speling and Punctuation is the very MOST immportant thing; an if anyone disegrees their WRONG! and trying to Destory Wikipedia and MUST be stoped; before the werld comes too an end..
* A14(a) The hyphens-dash clause
:: This applies when ''hyphens'' are used instead of ''en-dashes'' or especially when used instead of ''em-dashes'' or visa-versa. This can potentially cause a fatal case of what is referred to as ''Gnomish CE-OVERLOAD'', if a WikiElf is not present to help them calm down. In severe cases, all the offending editor's articles and edits shall be reverted and they shall be issued an infinite block for [[WP:DE]]. Available only to WikiGnomes with SuperGnome{{tm}} powers.
* A15. Someone stole your idea.
:: Something you've been planning on writing for years now and was almost ready to think about considering starting it, but someone stole the idea and beat you to it. The offending editor obviously is a mind reader and this is the same as plagiarism.
* A16. Obviously not notable.
:: You did a Google search in English and nothing came up on the first page, so it can't be notable and it's too much trouble to go to AfD and plus someone might disagree with you there.
* A17. Its a stub. You hate stubs.
:: A stub. You hate stubs. Why are there so many stubs? Also applies to start articles that look too much like stubs and to featured articles that at one point were stubs.
* A18. Something that could be merged, but you're too lazy to do it.
:: Applies if you are too lazy at the moment to do the work or feel you might be too lazy when you get around to thinking about maybe doing it later.
* A18(a). Something could be redirected, but you forgot the correct syntax for a redirect.
:: Syntax is hard. Why can't you just wish for a thing to be and it is? This way you just have a couple clicks to perform. Everything on Wikipedia should be done by clicks and not require typing. Typing is hard.
* A19. Articles with references in languages other than English that obviously cannot be verified.
:: This is '''English Wikipedia''' so everything should be in English. Google translate is hard and some of those non-Latin characters are scary.
* G15. You're having a bad day and something just absolutely must pay for it.
:: Applies to all situations where real-life issues are upsetting you and the best solution is to take it out on an innocent article, category, template or other random page or two. Please note: this only applies to real-life off-wiki situations that are upsetting you. If you are upset due to an on-wiki situation, other CSD criteria may apply, such as A12 or A13. If you are both having a bad off-wiki day and something on-wiki is also bothering you, please contact an Oversighter and have something suppressed.
* G16. You should get credit for something, but won't unless it's deleted first so you can claim the credit.
:: You found something and think you could improve on it, but want credit for creating it, so you want it deleted. Can be literally anything from a new stub to the five pillars.
* G17. You just feel something should be deleted.
:: Feelings are more important than facts, policies, and guidelines. You should [[WP:IGNORE]] and go with your gut.
* U6. A user page that meets the criteria for a user page, but that you don't like.
:: A good way to express exactly how involved you are in the lives of individuals you don't know.
* U7. User page deletion anger management
:: Available when you are having a disagreement with another editor, need to vent your anger, but don't want to be blocked for a personal attack. You can repeatedly have their user page deleted until they acknowledge you are always correct and agree not to challenge you in the future. Use with caution due to the possibility of this developing into a U7(a) situation.
* U7(a). User page deletion anger management delete war
:: When two editors need to vent their anger over a disagreement on an article but don't want to edit war at that article or engage in personal attacks, they can engage in a ''delete war'' against each other's user pages, repeatedly having the other's user page deleted and when the other user refunds their page and deletes your page, you simply delete again until someone surrenders. Canvassing your clique to create a ''delete war army'' to assist you is acceptable. If the delete war appears to be at a stalemate, an uninvolved admin can decide to close the delete war by having a Wikipedia drone strike carried out on the editors accounts to end the situation.

==Free tools for editing Wikipedia==
These are some of the tools I use, your millage may vary, but these work for me. Suggestions welcome. Items available for Linux, may be available for Windows and Mac. All work well for individuals with visual impairments, and most work well with dark themes.

'''Text Editors'''
* [[Visual Studio Code]]: This text editor has a [https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jasew.mediawiki Wikipedia extension] (by Jason Williams) with code coloring, a great snippet tool, autocomplete, code folding, robust find and replace within/across documents, workspaces, write scripts in any language, and a reasonable spelling engine that doesn't flag code. I find this very useful for working with new articles and bibliographies.
** [https://vscode.dev/ VSCode online edition]
** Useful extensions: [https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jasew.mediawiki Wikipedia extension], [https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=James-Yu.latex-workshop LaTeX Workshop], [https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=yzhang.markdown-all-in-one Markdown All in One]
* [[Sublime Text]]: Another great text editor, all of the features above, except spell check and code coloring. I usually use this as a notepad, to compose or edit short passages, edit talk page messages. Biggest drawback is no spell check. I prefer VS Code for snippet management. There is a plug in that allows you to directly open, edit, and save Wikipedia pages which is very useful.
* [[Brackets (text editor)|Brackets]]: Another great text editor.
I usually have all of the above open and just switch between them depending on what I'm doing.

'''Grammar and writing tools'''
* Grammarly - [https://www.grammarly.com]

'''Python modules for text processing and data analysis'''
* [[Natural Language Toolkit|NLTK (Natural Language toolkit)]], [[spaCy]]
* [https://www.youtube.com/c/PythonTutorialsforDigitalHumanities Python Tutorials for Digital Humanities]
(These are useful for cleaning up raw bibliographic data, working with tables, geographic data, etc)

'''Office Suites'''
* [[LibreOffice]]: Word Processor and Spreadsheet. Minimal bloat, all the tools someone might use in a more expensive and bloated Office suite. Doesn't have an easy to switch to dark mode :/
* [[Open Office]]: Very very similar to Libre Office.
* [[Google Docs]] web applications. No my favorite. There extension system is awkward, but this is useful. Best dark mode.

'''Fonts'''
* Input: I prefer Input Mono Thin. Works well with color coding on dark backgrounds.<ref>site https://input.fontbureau.com/preview/</ref>

'''References and notes''''
* [[Evernote]]: online note taking. I use this but below items are great
* [[Joplin]]: if I wasn't so used to Evernote, I'd probably use Joplin.<ref>[Joplin Note taking https://joplinapp.org/]</ref>
* [[Simplenote]]: Made by WordPress.<ref>Simplenote https://simplenote.com/</ref>
* [[Zotero]]: reference manager. Someone told me this would change my life and it did. Has browser plug ins for Chrome and Firefox. Lacks some accessibility customizations I like.

'''Web tools'''
* Exceltowiki [https://excel2wiki.toolforge.org/index.php]: works with LibreOffice and OpenOffice, not just Excel.
* DeepL: Machine translation, personal opinion this works better than Google.<ref>DeepL https://www.deepl.com/translator</ref>
* [https://coding.tools/regex-replace Online RegEx], [https://regex101.com/ Online RegEx utility]
* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8L6KVGG-7o Python RegEx video tutorial], [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGKQkV4guDKH1TpfM-FvPGLUyjsPGdXOg Another Python RegEx video tutorial], [https://developers.google.com/edu/python/regular-expressions Google online RegEx tutorial], [https://www.programiz.com/python-programming/regex Python RegEx tutorial]

'''Online repositories'''
* [https://github.com/ Github], online storage and versioning for projects that aren't yet ready for prime time or anything else you want.

* Wikipedia's style for an [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Ellipses]] ellipsis is three unspaced dots ({{xt|<code>...</code>}}); do not use the precomposed ellipsis character ({{!xt|<code>…</code>}})<!-- Possibly we should explain the precomposed character in terms of its code point or something --> or three dots separated by spaces {{nobr|({{!xt|<code>. . .</code>}})}}. Generally, use a non-breaking space before an ellipsis, and a regular space after it
