Hello,
I've been a member of Wikipedia since 2002, but due to certain wiki internal "conflicts" in 2006-2008, I relinquished my editor status and create a new account in 2009. I now just do spell and fact checking. Politics don't quite suit me, only dealing with proven facts. "Cherry Picking" data based on personal or political agendas, or monetary gain, or worse yet, current idealisms isn't facts, and should not be on Wikipedia. Regardless of my beliefs, I do think that the culmination of the human learning experience should be recorded in any and all mediums that is available now and in the future, regardless if the content is political, religious, scientific, or any other for our future generations to learn and grow.
Call me a fool, but I'd like to still believe this is a place to have an honest record of the past and current events.
For those that are still reading, I hope you have a wonderful and adventurous life. Never stop exploring, no matter how many people tell you not to! They are too scared to see how amazing the universe actually is. Just remember to be as safe as you can, and always bring a friend or twelve. Backup is a life-saver, but it's always great to share new experiences with others.
