The part that matters

edit

I may spend a fair amount of time editing private, documentation wikis and spend ridiculous amounts of time browsing wikipedia trying to learn new and interesting stuff, but I am quite a novice at editing wikipedia. Despite reading many talk pages & researching many conflicts I feel too timid (& often too late) to insert myself into these issues. For when I do step in & mess up, I only ask other editors to remember WP:AGF. Also, please don't hesitate to explain what may seem common knowledge because I'm still learning many elements of wikipedia like policy and am always eager to potentially learn something new. I know I shouldn't take anything personally so please remind me of this if I do.
