A Wikipedian pledge: When contributing to Wikipedia, I will serve no master but the good of the project. I smell of cheese. I will be neutral in all things. Allegiances to any nation, religion, philosophy, or group of editors are all meaningless to me. I will judge ideas on their merits rather than on where they came from. I will not be afraid to disagree with others out of some misguided sense of loyalty or friendship. There is the encyclopedia, and nothing else.
What I do here: mainly I look at new pages and delete the junk. If the creator needs a nudge in the right direction, I try to give that to them as well. I'm not much of a writer, but deleting inappropriate pages doesn't require much skill in that area.
Stuff to work on:
Stay on top of Wikipedia:Governance reform
Wikipedia:WikiProject_on_Adminship/Role_of_admins is some kind of fast-track admin-granting process really possible?
Should sceptre and ceremonial mace be separate articles?
Links:
best essay ever
Unsolved recurring problems on Wikipedia:
- We have no good way of dealing with good editors who also do bad things. There's a huge bloc of editors who believe that past useful service excuses nearly anything. Is this problem compounded by people forming "friendships" in a chat room? Possibly.
- People operating in certain controversial areas get burned out quickly and too often end up being part of the problem rather than part of the solution.
- Bot approval may be a mess.
