Quotes
- There's something indescribable, yet intrinsically beautiful about sharing knowledge, making contributions, and helping others.
- ~
- The quantity of one's edits matters far less than the quality of one's prose.
- ~
- We don't appreciate history until we become an integral part of it.
- ~
- I may not be perfect, but I can certainly strive to be.

- Your quote- "I may not be perfect, but I can certainly strive to be."
- If there is absolutely no chance of being perfect, why try to be. Just a random question. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.99.140.221 (talk) 22:39, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
- Because as long as you are striving to be perfect you keep getting better. Grasping that concept may be difficult for those who set limits on themselves or lack self-confidence. Atsme📞📧
- Oxymoron
- Requesting a block against an editor for ignoring all rules when WP:IAR is our policy.

Helpful tool for subpages- Don't let your fingers type faster than your brain can analyze context.

- The problem with being "politically correct" today is that we have allowed it to obfuscate truth.
- ~
- Having character and being a character are not the same. ~Atsme
- ~
- A classic line by User:NE Ent [1] during the 2014 ARBCOM elections: Um, if wiki elections were run on American Democratic party guidelines IPs could vote early and vote often.

- The universe is made of protons, neutrons, electrons and morons. ~anonymous
- ~
- On Wikipedia, it's important to know when to stop arguing with people, and simply let them be wrong. ~anonymous

- Hiya Atsme! I was speaking to this Leopard slug last night as it was crossing the road. It told me that it had been to three Christmas parties and was very drunk, and was going to a fourth. I said be careful leopard slug when crossing the road. It then asked if I had a cigarette but I said I was out of smokes. With that it became verbally abusive so I walked off. Have a great Christmas love, oozing with laughs and unstressy vibes! Love from Si xx Simon Adler ( talk) 03:04, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
- 😂 Si, no one should have to put up with verbal abuse from anyone or anything. It’s a good thing you walked off when you did. You see, there’s a reason they’re called slugs, and you just happened to stumble upon a Leopard slugger that was suffering nicotine withdrawal. I have no doubt you could have taken him down but it would have been a slimy crawl; besides, why bother? A Leopard can’t change its spots.

- Hey, Peter! - thank you!! My research corroborates your source, and I will add per WP:OR that fishing runs a close second. My little island in the Dutch Caribbean affords me the opportunity to enjoy both. I hope your New Year started off as delightful as mine! 🥂🍾 🎉 🎊 💃
The first few years
My first year, 2011 & other boring highlights thru 2015. 👀 | |

My first year, 2011I first signed up as a WP editor in 2011 and managed to do a small amount of editing. At the time, I was still volunteering as exec dir for Earthwave Society, a small nonprofit conservation organization I founded in the 90s to help save endangered species. I was also quite busy with my photographic career. It took a few years to completely unravel from an all-consuming career as publisher of a regional magazine, and scriptwriter, series producer and post-production editor of local network programming, a bit of field work for CNN Headline News, a weekly series for sports cable, and scripting features for Travel Channel programs and the Financial News Network. I eventually focused entirely on writing/producing/shooting/editing nature programming for PBS and international broadcast, and occasionally worked in cooperation with Virginia Tech, the USF&WS and several other federal and state resource agencies. What I gleaned from my early experiences as a WP newbie bursting onto the scene was that it's best to make small edits in the beginning, and read WP:PAG to acquire a better understanding of "community", and what's expected from GF collaboration. I went about it all wrong, and because I didn't understand how the WP community functioned, I was discouraged from editing altogether. Reflecting on those experiences, I highly recommend WP:MENTORSHIP to new editors. I also believe the following behavioral guidelines will prove helpful: WP:HEAR, WP:DONTBITETHENEWBIES and the essay WP:AVDUCK, the latter of which I created and co-authored.
I traveled extensively during 2012 and 2013 to hone my photographic skills, so I took a 2-year hiatus from editing WP. There were long periods of time during my travels when I had no internet access. It was all quite peaceful and a great way to wind-down from a fast-paced career in television broadcast. 2014 learning highlightsIn January 2014, I opted for semi-retirement which afforded me the opportunity to give something back as a volunteer on WP by sharing what knowledge I've acquired during a wonderful 30+ year career as a writer, tv producer, and photographer. I am also an accomplished equestrian and rancher so my area of expertise covers those topics as well; ranching being the reason I may never be able to fully retire. I learned some very valuable lessons in 2014, and am happy to say I've collaborated with some very patient and understanding editors who, for years, have voluntarily invested their time and effort into making WP an exceptional online resource. They certainly have earned my respect and admiration.
I'm sure that over time I will be adding more to my list of lesson highlights.
2015 learning highlightsDisruptive cabal editing is the gift that keeps on giving and the gift is a daily beating. I don't think there is anything more detrimental to the project than a cabal with an axe to grind or a POV to push. I think we defined it pretty well in WP:AVDUCK. If your purpose here is to contribute verifiable, well-sourced information that will help improve the encyclopedia, your experience should be a pleasant one. However, if you stumble onto an article that is controlled by an advocacy known to engage in tendentious editing and reverts by tag-team, you may be able to save yourself a lot of grief by heeding the essay's advice for seeking resolution.

File:Spotted Trunkfish.jpg 2020-08-02 POTD
The spotted trunkfish (Lactophrys bicaudalis) is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Ostraciidae, native to the Caribbean Sea and parts of the western Atlantic Ocean. Members of this family are known as boxfishes because they have a hard outer covering consisting of hexagonal, plate-like scales fused together into a solid, triangular or box-like carapace. Because of this casing, the body of the spotted trunkfish is not flexible, and locomotion is normally limited to slow movements performed by rippling its dorsal and anal fins and gently beating its pectoral fins. If faster motion is required, it can additionally use its caudal fin for propulsion. This spotted trunkfish was photographed at a depth of about 40 ft (12 m) at Bari Reef, Bonaire.
