Greetings and hello.

A member since 2005, I've only started doing more thorough edits since 2014. I am a web developer by profession which helps to tweak things, especially templates.

I should probably make something of this User Page some time, but for now, this is it!

First pass (put it on the next line): Replace: With:

Next passes (split the goals, line by line; execute it multiple times until it finds no matches): Replace: With:

Before saving, scroll over the changes it has made via the Wikipedia editor!
