Hello! This is my user page. Why are you here? Are you stalking me or something? Really, my life is not that interesting.
75.px | This user lives in a house that is Drawn Together with love. |
As far as Wikipedia goes, I mainly devote my writing and editing energy to the Drawn Together pages, which I maintain pretty regularly even when Xandir's not around.
My editing guidelines
In case you're curious why I reverted or revised your edit to one of the Drawn Together pages, here is a list of the guidelines I generally follow in editing.
The following is a list of things that, IMO, make poor notes and should not be included in episode articles.
1. Notes which interpret as canon things which are obviously just gags. Examples: Toot having a penis, Ling-Ling's real name being Ling-Ling Hitler Bin Laden Seacrest.
2. Notes which merely retell jokes from the episode or point out obvious plot details. These notes provide no real information beyond what is readily apparent just by viewing the episode.
3. In the case of parodies, it is only necessary to state the work being directly parodied; it is completely unnecessary to point out other works which have parodied the same thing.
4. Listing each time a character exhibits a particular trait they are well-known for. It's well-established by now that Clara is an anti-Semite; pointing out that she made an anti-Semitic joke in a particular episode just isn't notable.
5. While more flagrant errors may be notable, in general it is not necessary to list extremely minor errors in animation. It's not especially interesting, and if we tried to chronicle all of them, the pages would be extremely cluttered.
6. Generally, anything speculative in nature should not be included unless there is significant evidence to support it.
7. There is no need to point out that something is an "obvious" parody. It's completely subjective how obvious something is, and furthermore it's not even relevant anyway.

And if you ever have the urge to contact me, don't call me Raymond. It's a Monty Python reference, not my actual name.
This is my wonderful wall of userboxes. You Mongolians quit trying to knock down my city wall!
