Sturmgewehr88

Sometimes misspelled as Sturmgewher, this word translates as "storm rifle" or "assault rifle" from German. The number 88, often mistaken as code for "heil Hitler", represents the 88mm main gun on the Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger Ausf. E and the Panzerkampfwagen Königstiger Ausf. B. It is abbreviated as StG88 or Sturm. It is my prefered psuedonym, and any acompanying avatar usually depicts an assault rifle, tank, or the mitsudomoe. I've used this name since late 2010 (can't remember exact date). I chose it because as a teenager I was super interested in German history and WW2, and mixed my favorite gun in Call of Duty World at War (Sturmgewehr 44) with the number 88 (not only was it the caliber of the Tiger's main gun, but the model of the Panzer unit in Sid Meier's Civilization IV has "88" painted on the side of the turret). I was unaware of the negative connotation of 88 until 2013; I recognize that some people have misused the number 88 as a symbol of hate, however I believe that we shouldn't let their negative actions dictate how everyone else can use it. It's important to allow individuals to express themselves in a way that is meaningful to them while also denouncing the bad actions of others. Don't let bad people win.

I was blocked for a week on Japanese Wikipedia for incivility.

WikiProjects

On Wikipedia, I generally edit Ryukyuan articles, although I also edit many articles outside this field. I use Wikipedia as a primary source of information, and when I come across a mistake in any random article, I correct it. Because the number of pages on my watchlist are over 2,000, I also fight vandalism across a wide range of topics. I also frequently add welcome templates to new user and IP talk pages. Sometimes I try my hand at other things (like AN/I, AfD, new page patroling, etc.), and I also help with requests for comment. When editing articles, I generally have an immediate-inclusionist tendency.
