It's tempting to linger in this moment, while every possibility still exists. But unless they are collapsed by an observer, they will never be more than possibilities.

About me

edit

Howdy. I go by Sirdog nowadays, previously Sirdog9002 prior to my renaming in 2021.

Because of the nature of my brain, there isn't really any one part of the encyclopedia that I focus on. I can go months being completely disinterested in the project, then become intensely focused on reviewing new pages/articles for creation drafts, fighting vandalism, participating at articles for deletion, and so on. It is not uncommon for me to do all of these activities in a single session and at random. This tendency has resulted in me having many hats, though it was never my intention to collect them.

When I am otherwise not taking a "break" from the project, I tend to be a heavy lurker on the primary noticeboards and on the Discord server (though, unlike the noticeboards, I occasionally talk there).

I always appreciate contact from other editors, so long as it is civil and in good faith, so never feel as if dropping by is a bother. The nature of what I do tends to lean on me rarely speaking directly to others. I am always happy to answer general questions from new editors, or questions relating to my own editing, though I make no guarantees on the speediness of my reply.
