User:Altaïr

Hi there, I'm Altaïr. My goal in life is to attain infinite knowledge, even though I recognize the impossibility of such a thing. I am, as a result, interested in everything (yes, everything), and I couldn't live without Wikipedia and the related projects.

On Wikipedia

[edit]

The first focus of my main contributions to the project have been dedicated to the endless war against vandalism. The second main focus is making cosmetic minor edits; basically spell/grammar corrections, wikicode, layout, cleanup, formatting... trivial but necessary stuff like that. In fact, I would say that it is mutually intelligible from copyediting.

I am also a rollbacker and reviewer. Even though I have learned a lot over the years during my time here, do not hesitate to call me out if you think I did something wrong or made a mistake. I would really appreciate it if you did. Oh, and it also goes the other way around; if you have a question for me, no matter what it is, please just ask; I'll be glad to help. You can use my talk page for contacting me. I am not an expert on Wikipedia or its deeper (sometimes arcane, even for me) structure, but I like to think that I have a solid grasp of the most crucial aspects, and at best, superficial knowledge of nearly everything else. If there is something that I do not know, I would gladly and immediately refer you to more experienced, and much more involved, contributors other than myself.

Personal

[edit]

I'm 18 years old, and I spend nearly all my time by myself. I generally enjoy reading, logic, writing, music and language, and I use Wikipedia every single day. Even if I don't edit every day, I still read and turn to the project for knowledge ad nauseam. I've had this account for a long time as well.

Now you know everything that's relevant about me, I think. You can look at those userboxes to the right for more useless information if you wish.
