User:Carthan

I've been a reader here on Wikipedia for several years now, and more recently I've had an interest in the editing side of things -- this all coming to fruition after picking up the print version of Help:Wikipedia:_The_Missing_Manual.

While I'm a relative newcomer here, I see it as important to note that I'll be going forth with minor edits in the spirit of WP:Bold; I'll take a different approach when it comes to broader-scale edits, or those that others may recognize as warranting a second look. In those cases, my intention will be to talk about the potential edits I am considering, putting them on the table for others to weigh in, and most importantly reach WP:Consensus ahead of moving forward.

I have taken time to familiarize myself with Wikipedia’s policies regarding WP:NPOV, WP:RS and WP:COI -- and after having done so I've decided that it makes the most sense to reflect any potential bias in place upfront, recognizing that others will be able to better evaluate my contributions. As it so happens, Accce is a client of my employer, and with this in mind, I'll take care to follow the policies noted above closely when engaging with other editors on articles that relate to this topic. Specifically, I intend to seek the input of other editors when approaching potential edits, only moving forward after reaching adequate consensus. On the topic of my editing activity, if you have any feedback or thoughts on my contributions, or could use my assistance on an article you have taken an interest in, please do drop by my user talk page (User talk:Carthan) and leave me a note (or a plate of welcome cookies, perhaps?).
