This is my page for Other Random Annoyances; in other words, little things not related to grand policy or abstract Wikiphilosophy that just annoy me, and as such I aim to change whenever I can. This list is permanently incomplete, and any extra suggestions can be added to my Talk Page. If I find them annoying, they will be transferred here.


 * Extra white space at the end of paragraphs, which account for a fair proportion of my minor edits
 * The so-called punctuation that is "--" (and even occasionally "---"). Where this came from I am not sure, but its spread across the project has been swift. I remove it (replacing it with an " " (&mdash;), with no spaces either side) whenever I come across it, which is frighteningly often
 * Uncivil edit summaries (indeed, incivility in all its forms)
 * Vandalism with an edit summary of "typo" or such like (indeed, vandalism in all its forms)
 * Wikilinks that are self-referential (link to the article that the link itself is in)
 * Userboxes (my thoughts can be found here), although I would not advocate the deletion of many of them
