I am a pickle trying to contribute to the sum of human knowledge. English Wikipedia has 113,449 active editors and I believe I am the first to be fermented in brine. Some Wikimedians may know me by my real name and social media, which is fine, but I like to maintain a semblance of privacy on this account. I like writing and maintaining articles about my interests, reviewing AfC submissions, and occasionally chipping away at the edit request backlog and list of potentially dated statements. Before I had this account I edited as an IP for a few years, mostly fixing typos and dead links.
I like a lot of things. I often find myself maintaining Wikipedia articles for social media influencers, mostly because I often find their representations on Wikipedia lopsided or nonexistent. Bringing an awkward but highly-viewed biography to a serviceable ~C-class is such a high-impact way to spend an hour or three. I also like the regularly-updated list of popular low quality articles. For personal enjoyment, I created a list of unusual anniversaries or "on this day" events which you can read and contribute to, if you so desire. I'm pretty nice (I think) and I genuinely enjoy helping brand-new Wikipedians learn the ropes. If you're one of those brand-new Wikipedians, welcome! I hope you kick off your shoes and stay a while. Perhaps you'll find Molly White's editing tutorial useful. There's a lot to do!
I am really inspired by fellow editors and I feel privileged to improve the 'pedia with all of you. If I make a mistake or do something stupid, please trout me!
My professional headshotHere I am with my boyfriend <3A photo of me with my siblings when we were all kidsOw!!!!!!!!! I prefer not to discuss the injury.This is the jar where I make my Wikipedia edits. Glass statue of my grandpa, one of the crunchiest and most famous pickles
Lookout Santa Cruz, I whipped up this article after this newsroom won a Pulitzer
Chris Olsen, did a quick rewrite of an AfC submission when I was in a time crunch. need to spend another 20 minutes or so on it until I feel okay about it
Wikiscan has the most detailed breakdown of contribs of any of the edit count tools and its analyses of individual users even estimate time contribution!
Asubset term identifies a set of members of a larger class. Common subset terms are including, such as, and among.
Don't use redundant subset terms (so avoid constructions like these: Among the most well-known members of the fraternity are included two members of the Onassis family; The elements in stars include hydrogen, helium and iron, etc.).
Don't use including to introduce a complete list, where comprising, consisting of, or composed of would be more accurate.
