User:Kilvin77


Hi, I'm Kilvin!


I am first and foremost a Wikipedia reader, which means I tend to edit when I see something to edit/change/fix/adjust in articles I come across.

It seems that when I seek out something to edit, more often than not I abandon the draft after hours of work, and I will end up with many many dormant tabs locked away in windows locked away in other desktops...

To combat this issue, I have been trying to get myself to make distinct edits (cf. wp:normal editing process). Apologies in advance to anyone I annoy with consecutive entries in the edit history. I hope I can make up for it with edit summaries that relieve one from needing to see the diff. As for those annoyed by slightly wordy edit summaries... perhaps consider changing your mind.


I'm interested in linguistics, but don't often edit articles in that domain.

In fact, it was Wikipedia that first introduced me to the technical language for linguistic concepts like Cooperative principle and Implicature which have informed how I communicate since before I was familiar with those terms.

I discovered the Wikipedia community by somehow stumbling into the MoS and the backroom chatter that is WP namespace. I remember reading things like MOS:DOUBT (and then of course, clicking the See Also to MOS:QUOTEPOV) and being amazed that these sorts of considerations were actually taken seriously. I'm so pleased that I did as I had no idea that articles were only a fraction of what takes place here.


This user probably went through the list of WikiFauna alphabetically and resonated with a lot of them, which, at the very least, means...
