GREAT NEWS!!! Bacon Challenge 2010 is underway. Thank you to everyone who made the Doughnut Drive 2009 such an enormous success!!! Last year's Kelapstick Bacon Challenge 2009 was awesome.
My proudest achievements as a Wikipedian include contributions to:
- Rubbernecking
- Sophomoric humor (not necessarily the article)
- Grape pie
- Dessert bar
- Cookie salad
- Snickers salad
- Glorified rice
- Bacon mania
- Roadkill cuisine (with help and inspiration from a great Jedi)
- Frittole
- Steamed clams
- Clams casino
- Kiss My Bundt Bakery
- Joan's on Third
- Golden Krust
- Chili Bowl (restaurant)
- Oriental Theatre (Portland) (with a nice photo restoration from Durova, who needs to get cracking on my other photo needs)
- Frederick Heath (architect)
- West 8
- Wearable technology
- Exopolitics since merged
- Food and sexuality for the prurient and hungry
And of course my work with doughnuts (the potato doughnut article is particularly intriguing to me) and the small part I had to play in upholding Wikipedia's core neutral point of view policy by exposing the dangers of square milk jugs

A Plea for Empathy
We get upset at people with conflicts of interest, but let's not forget that someone passionate about their work or a project they love may simply be coming here, naming themself after something important in their life, and trying to contribute. Empathy might soften our approach and help to guide them into becoming good faith contributers who understand the rules. Being confrontational and turning them off Wikipedia by immediately hitting them hard with templates and rule violations doesn't seem like the best approach. A little human touch and compassion would go a long way. Happy Holidays y'all!

Protector of the Milk | |
For the extensive editing you did fixing my shabby work on square milk jug, and for acquiring a picture of the traditional vessel, I hereby award you this cold glass of milk (fat content unknown), and grant you the title Protector of the Milk. --kelapstick (talk) 18:35, 26 January 2009 (UTC) |
