From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello welcome to my userpage.

This essay by a fellow editor is worth reading: I am going to die

Extract:

The first is: Please do not bite the newcomers. Remember not just that you will die someday, but also that you were once new, inexperienced, clumsy, prone to breaking things, unaware of any of the rules, and generally making mistakes and screwing up articles. [...] If we want editors like us to be here when we die, we need to extend the same grace to the current newbies.
