From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

With false names, on the right nets, they could be anybody. Old men, middle-aged women, anybody, as long as they were careful about the way they wrote. All that anyone would see were the words, their ideas. Every citizen started equal, on the nets.[1]
Orson Scott Card

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.[2]
Carl Sagan

Alone we can do so little. Together we can do so much.[3]
Hellen Keller

Tracy Jordan: If Wall St. crashes, it'll be the 1970s all over again. People will get mean, the streets won't be safe, it'll be graffiti everywhere, and the movies will only cost three dollars!

Larry King: Tracy Jordan -- saying three serious things, and then a joke.

I have been writing and editing articles on Wikipedia since 2005, and only in 2019 have decided to do so exclusively through use of a user page with moniker. This is partly so that I can have a documented history as a contributor, which may be helpful for other Wikipedia editors and contributors for verifying or allowing my content on more watched topics. That said, I prefer to remain anonymous as far as my real name and location are concerned, and will add details about my expertise, experience, and interests with time, keeping in mind the extent to which that might compromise my privacy.

I also make financial contributions to Wikipedia on a regular basis, and encourage others to do so too. Wikipedia is a beautiful example of the power of collaboration and community, and it is imperative for it to be supported by the community so as to be controlled by it.

I would like to declare that as of March 2021, I have no alternative accounts, and am not editing for or on behalf of a company, organisation, group, product, or person. I endeavour to remain neutral and disclose any conflicts of interests if and when they arise.
