Nouse4aname is taking a short wikibreak and will be back on Wikipedia soon. |
I am taking a break from editing. Recent events have made me think again as to whether I can be bothered contributing to this project, not least the attitude of one admin who couldn't even be bothered to read an unblock request by myself, and declined it for "being too long". Lazy git.

Yes, I created a new userbox. Although I feel that userboxes are useless, I think this one is an exception.
I am getting frustrated with wikipedia. There are many many causes:
- The presence of articles that should not exist...why does being a member of a semi-notable band make that member notable in their own right? It doesn't. We don't have to have an article on everything.
- Laziness...the inability to use "show preview", or to at least go back and correct mistakes you introduce by careless editing.
- Poor English (spelling, grammar, punctuation etc). Learn when and what to capitalise. If you don't know, find out before contributing any more.
- An inability to listen to advice and reason. When someone informs a user of any of the above, and yet the user still continues to behave in such a way.
- Edit wars, which usually ensue as a result of someone not listening to advice.

I have no idea about userboxes, except I think they are pointless.
My to do list:
Clear out Category:American musical groups by putting each article into a relevant sub category instead
-
- Completed December 8, 2007. Most articles have been correctly recategorised. Some may have possibly slipped into a category that isn't quite right...
- When Category:American musical groups is cleared, go through each article individually and give a general tidy up
-
On hold while I clear out Category:British musical groups. the above task is too daunting to begin just before Christmas!- Completed December 20, 2007. Suppose I'll have to start the big task at some point...
- Maybe I'll start working through this....Category:All pages needing to be wikified....
