From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Temet Nosce- Know Thyself. Before all else, know thyself.
Know what opinion is before injecting it into articles.
Know what your tolerance level is, before embroiling yourself in controversy.
Know that not every fight is worth it.
Talk pages are not- NOT for having political arguments and making opinionated comments.
Angry... but in a friendly way
Wikipedia is not a soapbox. I have a blog, if you want to express your beliefs get one. Therein lies my opinion about the current Middle-East Crisis. By that, I mean whichever crisis is going on now.
Hey there or السلام عليكم I have been using Wikipedia since before I became a user and made some minor edits. I am a user on Arabic language wikipedia under the name عذاب الليل. I am not perfect and while being an NPOV warrior I do occasionally put my POV into articles when I'm tired or not thinking clearly. If I feel I have screwed up I'll concede my mistake. But do be nice when pointing it out, that goes for others besides me, setting people on the defensive is of no help to anyone. I really truly believe in the free exchange of information, which is why I'm here. I plan on conributing to all kinds of articles (not just the on the interests listed below). I hope to add articles on Arabic literature, a field neglected even by Arabs. Some help in that Regard would be much appreciated. Translation of Articles to and from Arabic is also probable in the future.
There is no view worthy of this encyclopedia. Articles are not of a neutral point of view if they contain two or more opposing views. They are of neutral point of view if they are free from any point of view whatsoever.
Editing my user-page is acceptable(I kinda like it this way though). Vandalism is not- and vandals will suffer the consequences (think food poisoning).
I wish a violent death upon people who use Criticisms/Controversy sections in articles to push their own POV on the subject. Death I say! Death! Death! Banana (Okay, maybe death is a little too extreme, maybe I just hope they eat bad sushi)
Off topic: I love sushi! (^_^)
I believe that all lists should be alphabetized or have some kind order.

[edit] Contributions I'm Proud Of (as opposed to the other ones)
I'm mainly a discussion kind of user- making valid and sometimes unintentionally silly comments on talk pages but I do create, these are my little Frankenstein Monsters- They're Alive!! They're Alive!!!:
[edit] To Do List
I mostly use this section as a personal notepad, and some reminders may seem cryptic to others. Feel free to throw a task or two my way, no guarantees I'll do it though. Just precede with a star (*), and sign your name with four tildes (~~~~) afterwards.
- Upload language coloring book image and comment on use in Coloring Book.
