Introduction
(Address of introducing myself in Tagalog language)"Ako si Raider000, kasalukuyang estudyante sa isang pamantasang pang-estado sa Pilipinas, at taas-noo kong ipinagmamalaki ang aking pagiging isang Pilipinong Wikipedista.""Ako ay bisita noon sa Wikipedia. Noong mga panahon na nag-aaral ako, ginagawa ko bilang pagkukunan ng batayan ang Wikipedia, kunsaan ay kumukuha ako ng mga kasagutan sa mga takdang-aralin. Pero minsang sinabi sa amin ng isang guro sa asignaturang Pananaliksik na, bilang isang mahigpit na bilin, ay huwag kaming kukuha nga anumang bahagi ng detalye sa Wikipedia dahil sa ang mga nilalaman nito ay nagbabago at hindi beripikado ang mga artikulo. Isang araw bumisita ako roon para lamang mapalawak ang aking kaisipan ukol sa Pilipinas, noon ko nalaman na parang may suliranin ang Wikipedia. Napagtanto ko na may mga artikulo nga na mayroong kakulangan hindi lamang sa pagkatunay ng mga detalye, kundi sa mga balarila nito.""Naging bahagi ng Wikipedia. Upang mapunan ko ang pangangailangan ng websayt na ito kaya ko napagpasyahang makiisa bilang kasapi ng grupo ng mga editor at kontribyutor. Noong 2016, lumikha ako ng sariling akawnt, at nagsimula na rin akong makibahagi sa pamayanang ito alinsunod sa mga patakarang itinatakda nito. Nais ko lamang ay maging ligtas ito laban sa mga magtatangkang sirain ang pangalan nito, lalo na ang bandalismo, pangongopya, paninirang-puri at propaganda.""Ang aking layunin. Kaya ako sumapi sa komunidad ng mga Wikipedista ay upang mabigyan ng tamang impormasyon ang mga tao sa mundo. Lalo na sa panahon ngayon na laganap na sa aming bayan ang pagkalat ng pekeng balita. Ang nais ko ay mahadlangan ang pagbibigay ng maling detalye na nakakaapekto hindi lamang sa kaalaman nila kundi sa malalim na kaisipan sa mga bagay-bagay. Gayundin nais ko ring ilahad ang katotohanan at itigil ang pag-iral ng sensura. Dahil mas alam ng tao ay tiyak na magiging mas kapaki-pakinabang ito.""Pakiusap lamang sana sa lahat. Mayroon lamang akong panawagan sa lahat, sa mga tagagamit man o sa mga bumibisita rito. Nais ko pong ipaalam sa lahat ang aking mga paniniwala: Na lahat ng tao sa mundo ay hindi mangmang; Na hindi pambansang balita ang isang maliit na isyu; Na ang kasaysayan ay pinahahalagahan at hindi dinadaya; Na ang mga artikulo sa Wikipedia ay hindi blog o news item; Na ang mga artikulo sa Wikipedia ay hindi ginagaya, lalo na kung hindi naman ito bibigyang-pagkilala bilang sanggunian. Nalilito kasi ang mga tao sa pagka-orihinal ng teksto.""Kailangan ko po ang tulong n'yo. Bagamat higit dalawang taon na ako sa Wikipedia, nais ko pa rin ang tulong niyo, lalo na sa pagsunod sa mga patakaran nito.""Sana po ay nasiyahan kayo sa inyong nabasa. Magtutulungan tayong maging mahusay na Wikipedista ang bawat isa. Nawa'y gabayan ang lahat ng ating PANGINOON. Maraming salamat po!""–ANG MANLULUSOB, Pebrero 28, 2018"(English language translation of the text above)"I am Raider000, currently a student in a state university in the Philippines, and I'm proud of being a Filipino Wikipedian.""I was then a visitor to Wikipedia. At times I was studying then, I made Wikipedia as a base source, wherein I get answers for my assignments. However, a teacher in the Research subject had once told us that, as a strict rule, we do not take any part of Wikipedia's details because its contents change and articles are not viable. One day I visited there just to expand my thinking about the Philippines, and then I found out that there was a problem there. I realize that there are articles that not only lacking of proof on details, but also of its grammar.""I became part of Wikipedia. To fill any deficiency in this website, I decided to join as a member of the group of editors and contributors. In 2016, I created my own account, and I started to participate in this community in accordance with the policies set by it. I just want it to be safe against those who attempt to destroy its name, especially vandalism, copying, slandering and propaganda.""My goal. So I joined the Wikipedia community to provide people in the world with the right information. Especially today fake news is rampant in our country. What I want is to prevent the misinformation that affects not only their knowledge but also their deep thoughts on something. Also I would like to reveal the truth and cease the existence of censorship. Because people know these better, it will definitely be more useful.""My plea to everyone. I only have an appeal to everyone, either users or visitors. I want to let everyone know my beliefs: That everybody in the world is not ignorant; A small issue would never be a national news; That history is valued and not deceived; That Wikipedia articles are not blog or news items; That Wikipedia articles are not be imitated, especially if they are not recognized as references. People are confused about the originality of the text.""I need your help. Although I've been in Wikipedia for more than two years, I still want your help, especially in following its policies.""Hope you enjoy reading. We will help each other to become well-known Wikipedians. May we all be guide by our LORD. Thank you very much!""–ANG MANLULUSOB, February 28, 2018"

Activity
He is active online, taking time to look in articles, especially in the watchlist. He is willing to contribute, however, because his phone is still blocked for English Wikipedia, he could log in to Tagalog Wikipedia for such task. He would do this for the former by going Internet café by free time. He is available on weekdays, especially between or after class hours within school days, only if he has a limited budget to do this task. Anyway, he is still on practicing his editing skills more often, which is he currently doing, and soon, would manage on creating new articles (if he has new idea of something). If they want, Wikipedians can leave their messages in user's talk page.

Tasks

 * Editing pages.
 * Inserting citations (esp. news articles, websites, archives, blogs if necessary. He doesn't like to cite senseless matters).
 * Correcting grammar (though, he isn't very good in English language, both by speaking and by writing).
 * Links pages.
 * Redirecting pages (but did only once in Tagalog Wikipedia).
 * Applying obedience.

Contributions
As of January 31, 2017, Raider000 had already edited articles 256 times in English Wikipedia. See user's contributions.

Affected by lockdown (2020–21)
Due to worldwide COVID-19 pandemic that affected most countries since December 2019, and national and local government restrictions, editing Wikipedia for Raider000 became challenging. It was unable to do so especially since the country imposed community quarantine in early 2020 (one of the world's longest), because its activities are done mostly in the Internet cafés even before. Now it's willing to work more on these as restrictions were lifted and the pandemic is about to end. (Even you hoped for this, which is now happening.) (Updated July 23, 2023, post-midnight PST)

Raider000 is one with other co-editors in the celebration of the online encyclopedia's 20th anniversary last Jan. 15, 2021.  Congratulations  to everyone, even the readers, on ensuring this website a safe place to visit, to be informed, and to be welcomed.

Today


At this moment, this user, while enjoying Wikipedia, is experiencing tiredness. Certain circumstances may happen and certain problems may be encountered. ''It may be hard to receive news in the community, to work for the truth, to prevent vandalism and to correct mistakes. Furthermore, this user has future plans both in real life and in WP; for now, what is it doing is just balancing them.'' But still, this user is doing the best as much as can; WP will remain part of life's system. —Feb. 16, 2023, post-midnight (PST)

Related to the earlier statement, this user is concerned regarding unfinished businesses in WP. There are (half-unrecorded) backlogs on unfinished edits as well as future ones. This user will do the best to finish all of these as soonest as possible, as long as there's available time for such. As this, at least, is the difficult thing to do, this user is hoping that all sketchy plans will be carried out, and all targets will be done once and for all. —Mar. 15, 2023, evening (PST)
