I try to help out wiki as much as I can. Usually just small edits and vandalism reverts. I really enjoy finding, reverting and reporting vandalism. My edits and contributions may seem random because I LOVE the "Random article" button, but I make sure to research every article I edit. When I see a cite request I try my best to find one, when I see a POV statement I make sure to request a cite or remove it. Information you might think "everyone knows" still needs a cite, if anything it helps prevent hoaxes and they make an article more respectable. In my opinion a article for the most part can NOT have too many cites or inline links, and EVERY article needs at least a few references and cites to prevent original work being published on wiki. My personal goal is to try to make wikipedia as accurate, easy to use, and non-POV as possible.

I have a Serious Wikipediholism Problem, especially when it comes to tracking down vandalism, non-encyclopedic articles, and tagging pages with templates. I also try to keep an eye out for ideas to start new articles, but that's pretty damn hard since wikipedia has a article on just about everything you can think of.

I am always on the lookout for vandalism or other articles and statements that are not encyclopedic, Wikipedia is NOT a database for information on everything and everything that happens in the world, it needs to fit the notability guidelines for inclusion in wikipedia, or users like Me will tag and/or remove it.

Lead Section Size

The lead section of a Wikipedia article is the section before the first heading. The table of contents, if displayed, generally appears between the lead section and the first subheading.

Rule of thumb: If a topic deserves a heading or subheading, then it deserves short mention in the lead.

The lead section should contain up to four paragraphs, depending on the length of the article, and should provide a preview of the main points the article will make, summarizing the primary reasons the subject matter is interesting or notable. The lead should be capable of standing alone as a concise overview of the article, should be written in a clear and accessible style, should be carefully sourced like the rest of the text, and should encourage the reader to want to read more. The following table has some general guidelines for the length of the lead section:

< 15,000 characters medium size > 30,000 characters
one or two paragraphs   two or three paragraphs   three or four paragraphs
