I am a pickle trying to contribute to the sum of human knowledge. English Wikipedia has 126,245 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!

This week's backlog of the week is:

Goofy user subpages

I try not to waste too much time on barely-encyclopedic rabbit holes but sometimes I cannot resist.

Random style tip

Another styletip ...


Article and section titles


Don't use A, An, or The as the first word: History of South Africa, not The history of South Africa, unless by convention The is an inseparable part of a name (The Beatles).

Very Large Telescope


The Very Large Telescope (VLT) is an astronomical facility operated by the European Southern Observatory, located on Cerro Paranal in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile. It consists of four individual optical telescopes, each equipped with a primary mirror measuring 8.2 metres (27 feet) in diameter, which are generally used separately but can be combined to achieve a very high angular resolution. The VLT array is complemented by four movable auxiliary telescopes with 1.8-metre (5.9-feet) apertures, and the VLT Survey Telescope (at right in the photograph). This photograph, taken at sunset in 2015, shows the VLT and its associated telescopes and supporting buildings.
