WELCOME from ♦ Jongleur100 talk
This page is here mainly for me to keep track of what I've been doing, but if you feel inclined to know a bit more about who I am you can always click on the icons above.

As an inclusionist I am generally less concerned about notability than I am about accuracy. There are editors on Wikipedia who don't seem to have grasped the simple idea that it is an entirely new kind of encyclopedia. They would prefer it to be some sort of free online alternative to Britannica, with all its space limitations, edited by an elite. Thankfully it isn't. If a tiny number of people want to learn more about some obscure subject Wikipedia now gives them the opportunity to do so. Deletionists would deny them that opportunity.

I abhor drive-by taggers who are not interested in doing any research but expect everyone else to do it for them. I like adding images to articles when I think they may add value. As a member of the Counter-Vandalism Unit I also revert vandalism whenever I come across it - which is all too frequently, but mostly I just keep my head down and try to contribute in whatever small way I can.
