I'm not at all interested in Manga, but I still think Wikipe-tan is pretty awesome!

Hi there! I'm flaterred that you think me an important enough editor to visit my user page. Or perhaps you're thinking what is this person thinking?!?! either way, I invite you to drop me a line--I love getting messages! My main activities on Wikipedia are...

1. Working on the Shakespeare Wikiproject collaboration. It's one of the best ways to apply my knowledge to Wikipedia. I sort of drop out when it comes to all those nitpicky FA and GA things--I'm no good at nitpicking.
2.Editing random articles!
3.Welcoming new users. A very simple and easy way to be kind, and it gets your edit count up very fast. ;-)

Ideas for future projects (OR: things I should be doing)

[edit]

One down, six to go!

  • Clean up and add to Lord of the Flies literary critism section. I don't think I'll ever get around to creating a sub-page for this purpose. Some day, when I have a lot of time on my hands, I think I'll finally finish my notes!
  • Help with expansion of themes section in Hamlet .  Done

Userboxen

[edit]

I am usually I very Zen person. My decorating style might be described as "less is more" (with the exception of lime green paint). However, when it comes to userboxen, I say...more is more!! Ps. Thanks to D.M.N. for fixing my userboxen!!

Voss
Voss is the seventeenth collection by British fashion designer Alexander McQueen. It had its runway show on 26 September 2000 at the Gatliff Road Warehouse in London, and was created for the Spring/Summer 2001 season of McQueen's eponymous fashion house. The collection draws on imagery of madness and the natural world to explore ideas of bodily perfection, interrogating who and what was beautiful. Voss features a large number of showpiece designs, including dresses made with razor clam shells, an antique Japanese screen, taxidermy hawks, and microscope slides. The collection's palette mainly comprises muted tones; common design flourishes included Orientalist and surrealist elements. This photograph shows the razor clam shell dress at the 2024 Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.Photograph credit: Rhododendrites

Tagging pages for problems
Tagging pages for problems

"Tags" are often used to indicate problems. Some Wikipedia editors object to the practice of tagging instead of fixing, but there is value in pointing out an article's problems. Tagging allows editors to specialize, teaches editors and warns readers about subpar or problematic content. It is better if people solve the problems they encounter themselves, but not everyone may be able to. Editors are sometimes obliged to justify inclusion of tags, such as in the case of Template:POV.

Constructive criticism given in a civil, respectful manner is a vital part in a collaborative project like Wikipedia, and it should be welcomed rather than discouraged. Wikipedia values contributions from everyone—novices and experts alike. It is important to listen to readers who find an article biased, confusing or unconvincing. They might not have the expertise to fix those problems, but the fact that they report them probably means that an article needs improvement.
