Mission Statement
My mission in Wikipedia is to make Music Theory related pages accessible to all readers while maintaining it as an acceptable resource for those in academic communities. Keeping articles up-to-date and full of references and sources to related material will make both of these goals possible.

Disclaimer to Wikipedians Concerning Topics I Edit
All articles I create, edit, or put up for deletion are conducted in good faith. As a lifelong learner, I will enter debates where I feel my opinion is valid and should be voiced.

I enter this community as a growing expert in the field. I will not overstep my boundaries on a subject I am not qualified to comment on. It would be greatly appreciated that the same concept applies to other Wikipedians.
