My "Career" on Wikipedia
I started editing Wikipedia in October of 2022 when I spotted a typo in the First Opium War article. I started editing more, and it became a fun hobby.

I became an RC patroller.

I started my first draft in November 2022, which was a proud moment (making articles is a lot of work)!

On 17 December 2022, I made my 1,000th edit, which was on the Russian Agricultural Bank article. I cast my first ever vote in an RfA on 7 January 2023.

I became a Teahouse host in mid-January of 2023.

I joined the American Revolutionary War task force on 13 September 2023.

I became a rollbacker on 3 October 2023, which has helped me a lot fighting vandalism.

I have also made a useless list called "Professor Penguino's Laws", which I periodically add to with helpful tips or bits of experience that I have accumulated over my time here at Wikipedia.

One time I added a joke to the Village stocks, and it stayed there. Hooray, I guess? 

The Five Pillars of Wikipedia

 * 1) Wikipedia is an encyclopedia
 * 2) Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view
 * 3) Wikipedia is free content that anyone can use, edit, and distribute
 * 4) Wikipedia's editors should treat each other with respect and civility
 * 5) Wikipedia has guidelines, but no firm rules

Wikipedia is great because, while promoting productive discussion and debate, has flexible guidelines which protect both users and the encyclopedia itself. Go Wikipedia!
