User:EVula/policies

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

EVula is dealing with real-life crap (see the links). I'll be around, but not doing much more than WP:CHU patrols.

Personal Wikipedia Policies This user is an administrator on the English Wikipedia. (verify) This user is a rouge admin on the English Wikipedia. This editor is a WikiGnome. 3 It's really pretty simple: → Mind NPOV ← → Don't be a dick ← → Ignore all rules ← This user tries to do the right thing. If he makes a mistake, please let him know. Wikipedia is not censored. _ This_user_dislikes_seeing underscores_in_Wikilinks >:( Vandals don't like this user. This user is bold, but not reckless, in updating pages. This user is the owner of multiple Wikipedia accounts in a manner permitted by policy. 'crat+ This user will feel that the criteria for 'cratship are generally too high until they actually become a 'crat, at which point they will think the standards are perfectly fine. This user is a Reichstag climbing patroller. Were this admin is to act in a foolish, trollish, or dickish way, he is open to being slapped with a large trout. This editor is a Senior Editor, and is entitled to display this Platinum Editor Star.

These are just summations of my personal policies. I'll be expanding on these at a later date, so I'm not bothering to write anything right now. :P

However, I will share this quote, which I think sums up Wikipedia in general quite well:

“

Amateurs built the Ark, and professionals built the Titanic.

”

For those that are curious about the multiple accounts bit, here they are:

• EVula's sock (talk · contribs) — My non-admin account, for times that I want to edit from a non-secure location.
• Super Ultra Mege Bob of Waverly Drive from Mars146366 (talk · contribs) — registered (and blocked) only because it is an example of a too-lengthy username on WP:U. It was once removed for beanish concerns, so I registered the name myself to eliminate that worry.
• TallyBot (talk · contribs) — it has been suggested that this would be a better name for me.[1]
• Eric Ventress (talk · contribs) — My doppelganger account.

And yes, I know my service badge is rather inaccurate; I've got the right number of edits, but not the requisite 4 years' service. Pfft, like I care.
