Hello fellow Wikipedians. My interests include politics, history, philosophy, and reverting edits done purely for ideological reasons by single purpose accounts.

Personal Opinions on Editing Wikipedia
- An encyclopedia is poor source of info regarding a controversial topic. Having opposing sides presented while being conscious of WP:DUE is more ideal, actually it's dialectic
- If a particular philosophy sounds ridiculous, especially in the lead, then it probably has POV problems that stem from the page being edited by it's philosophical opponents
- Citing sources and/or wikipedia policies during discussions is essential.
- Just say no
- 500 edits seems like a lot

Things To Remember
- A. The tertiary-source fallacy (TSF) is the idea that because something appears in a dictionary, encyclopedia, style guide, or other tertiary source that it must be correct (or, especially, that it is the only correct version or interpretation), and that it trumps other arguments and evidence.
