My Editing Philosophy
- Noncontroversial edits are usually ok
- I will always follow the Guidelines and Commandments
- I won't change work from the editors who are never wrong, unless I really, really, really know what I am doing
- I won't edit or comment on essay pages; they are supposed to be opinion
- I will point out and correct when an article is unencyclopedic, but will back down when defending my action is futile
- I will point out and correct when an article does not follow the Guidelines or Commandments, but will back down when defending my action is futile
- I will not treat someone's work differently because of their "status"; this is a community project
- I will not revert anything added to a talk page, unless a user swears or edits another user's words
- There is no official block policy, so I will use my own judgement for blocking people
- I will never block someone for being non-conservative (for starters, I would have to block myself)
- I will never block someone for expressing their opinion, as long as it is civil
- I will never block someone for violating the 90/10 rule
- I will never block someone who has had no edits
- I will never block someone for being a sock unless I am 110% sure (as I have had bad experiences with this in the past, and as I have no checkuser powahs)
- The worse that can ever happen to me is I will get blocked
Some who think they are more rational than me may say that I'm a wimp for backing down. I say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a new result.
About Me
- I am a libertarian, and very much so!
- Actually, I'm a social and economic conservative. The difference between me and most conservatives is not what I believe, but where I think the government should step in for my beliefs.
- I (still) support Ron Paul for Republican Presidential nominee
- I'm currently undecided as to whom I will vote for, but I will never vote for Obama, Nader, any Green Party candidate, or any left-wing candidates (aka Socialist party and those other wingnuts). The only wingnut I might vote for is Bob Barr, but from what little I know about him, he's kind of a "blah" candidate.
- In 2008 I graduated from Bucknell University with a bachelor of science degree in chemical engineering
- I have a pretty strong background in fluid dynamics, heat and mass transfer, thermodynamics, etc. etc.
- I was at one point pursuing a minor in political science
- I have a good working base of political science, political theory and international politics
- I also have taken coursesin economics, logic, and probability
