User:Prestonvickrey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
My interest vary across the lines of computers, philosophy, politics, religion, education, economics, and much more. My opinions are strong, and my personality has been described as gruff, rude, and harsh. I don't seek to offend, but I'm far from politically correct. I don't enjoy free-typing[a] content so my edits are usually edits not major rewrites. I'm more than happy to offer input and opinion, as well as to listen to your's.

I think the most important part of Wikipedia is Wikipedia:Neutral point of view.
I believe we as editors are at our best when we realize on any subject worthy of a Wikipedia article we are limited because we/our:
- Don't know all the facts
- Perspective is limited by our location, culture, and place in history
- Are biased (we don't have a NPOV)
- Make mistakes
- Make assumptions
- should extend the forgiveness and understanding that we expect when we mess up to others
- The modern day version of freehanding.

Personal Facts
While I agree with the following, they do not belong in an encyclopedia:
| Ain't |
This user believes that ain't is a proper word to use in place of a contraction of a verb and a pronoun. Ain't that right? |
