Hello, Internet
Hi. I'm Sandeep.
I came to Wikipedia to fix one typo.
Several edits later, I am still here.
Origin Story
Joined Wikipedia in 2022 after realizing that the sentence "This claim needs a citation" is basically the internet's version of detective work.
Like many editors before me, I discovered two important things:
- Wikipedia articles are never truly finished.
- Fixing one typo usually leads to 27 unrelated edits.
Things I Do Here
- Fix grammar and awkward sentences
- Add reliable citations
- Remove unsourced claims
- Accidentally spend an hour reading about medieval agriculture
Editing Philosophy
Wikipedia is one of the strangest collaborative experiments ever created.
Millions of people who have never met each other somehow manage to write an encyclopedia together.
My goal is simple:
Leave pages slightly better than I found them.
Typical Editing Process
- Notice a small typo
- Fix typo
- Notice missing citation
- Add citation
- Reformat references
- Read entire article
- Open three more tabs
- Forget original reason for editing
Personal Discoveries
- Citation templates are both powerful and slightly terrifying.
- Some talk pages are longer than the articles themselves.
- The phrase "per consensus" appears more often than expected.
Favorite Wikipedia Moment
When you add a citation and the article suddenly looks 10x more trustworthy.
Wikipedia Survival Rules
- Always check reliable sources.
- Assume good faith.
- Never fight with citation templates. They always win.
