About Me

Contributor to English, (Modern) Greek and Latin Wikipedias (mostly English, though). I have, on occasion, made links to and from other Wikipedias where appropriate.

Wikipolitical Leanings

Like George Washington, I dislike factions; however, recent events have forced my hand. Revolutionary zealots serving on the Politburo of the People's Republic of Wikipedia, eager to purge WikiSociety of all server parasitism, decided to try one of my articles in their kangaroo court and execute it at sunrise. I therefore felt compelled to enter the ranks of the Association of Inclusionist Wikipedians in order to raise awareness and protect myself and the valid stubs that I have created.
If my articles are too short, help me and the rest of the Wiki community out by expanding them! I can't do it all alone. I am not creating Wikigraffiti or vanity articles. When I mention someone or something important in an article I'm working on, and that subject does not have its own article, I try to create one. My time and sometimes my knowledge are limited, but I do the best I can. While admitting my failings, I will not submit to the judgements of some ad hoc court from which there is no right to appeal. Terror suspects at secret tribunals have more procedural rights than this! I still can't even believe this happened!

I'd like to reproduce an appropriate quote from the Inclusionist page here:

The Moving Finger writes: and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.

And here's another one from an earlier Persian:

[4.15] Sayeth Darius the king: O thou who shalt see this inscription in the future which I have written or these sculptures, thou shalt not destroy (them) as long as thou shalt live; thus thou shalt guard them.

[4.16] Sayeth Darius the king: If thou shalt see this inscription or these sculptures (and) shalt not destroy them and shalt guard them as long as thy family shall be, may Auramazda be a friend to thee and may there be unto thee a family abundantly and mayest thou live long and whatever thou shalt do, this for thee (let) Auramazda make [successful].

[4.17] Sayeth Darius the king: If thou shalt see this inscription or these sculptures (and) shalt destroy; them and shalt not guard them as long as thy family shall be, may Auramazda be a smiter unto thee and may there not be unto thee a family and whatever thou shalt do, this let Auramazda destroy for thee.

I think that just about sums it up!

Articles I've Started

See this list for articles begun by yours truly. Not quite exhaustive, since I haven't updated it in awhile.

I've quite a few articles on my watchlist, and I've probably tinkered with hundreds if not over a thousand. If I've already forgotten about them, then they must have been unimportant and don't need to be listed here ;)
