Learning, editing and publishing is a useful pursuit. I hope to add value to Wikipedia. I enjoy shortening wordy sentences and reorganizing articles. I enjoy interactions with pleasant editors. I do not like unkindness; this is not X (formerly known as Twitter).

9/26/23 - I just made my thousandth edit!

Topics that I follow:
Nonprofit organizations - Finance & accounting - Middle East affairs - Political figures - Religious leaders

Stating the Obvious:
Most people die - Good is better than bad - Racism is wrong - No one is perfect - You cannot please everyone - Prisons suck

Helpful Editors:
User:DESiegel - helped by removing template message from an article I improved with secondary sources - Student Press Law Center

User:NatGertler - helped by patiently advising me on my talk page regarding punctuation and quotation marks on Wikipedia; Helped with figuring out dead links

Citation Needed In wiki markup, you can question an uncited claim by inserting a simple tag, or a more comprehensive. Alternatively, and  will produce the same result. These all display as:

Example: 87% of statistics are made up on the spot.[citation needed]

If a claim in an article is questionable and not supported by a cited reliable source then it may be challenged by anyone. You can put a tag beside it to request a citation. If it is inaccurate information from a dubious source put a tag on it – or find correct information and reference it from a reliable source. You also may use or  tags on it, as appropriate. If the tag has remained there for several days, the unsupported claim should be safe to remove.
