User:ThaddeusOrlando55

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello! I’m ThaddeusOrlando55 (he/him). (That’s not my real name.) I live in a country on the planet Earth. That really narrows it down, doesn’t it?

I mainly edit articles that interest me. Usually, they’re related to politics, history, biographies, and entertainment.

You can reach me at my talk page. Please be nice.

Background

[edit]
I was born on this marble here.

To your right you’ll see an assortment of userboxes pertaining to me. Hopefully they”re helpful in some way.

I was born somewhere, in some state/providence/district, in some country/territory, on some continent, on some day of some week of some month of some year of some century of some millennium. Useful information, no?

My goal on Wikipedia is to make articles as interesting and as accurate as possible. I do my best to keep my work here neutral, and typically I stray away from articles on current events or living people, as I’m more likely to have strong opinions on those. I mainly edit recent stuff if I feel I can fix an error or add important or interesting information. Aside from that, see the other sections above and below this one on this page to see what a I like to edit here.

I like Wikipedia, although that’s probably obvious. Comic books are also pretty great. I like Superman. I like James Bond, both the movies and the books, but am aware of the problematic aspects of both. I’ve seen all the Bond films at least once (with the exception of the 1967 Casino Royale spoof), and I’ve read the first four Fleming books, and am in the process of continuing the series. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series is another I’ve been reading through, and words are insufficient to describe its greatness.

I find political history pretty interesting, although maybe you could tell that by the articles I work on. Military history can be interesting, but I prefer political. John Quincy Adams is quite fascinating.

I like movies and TV too, but I’m not an expert on either, and comics come first for me. I like comedies.

On Wikipedia

[edit]

So, you might have guessed that I like to edit Wikipedia. As such, that comes with a lot of responsibility, and I have one or two opinions on this encyclopedia of ours. Below, my userboxes should clarify the specifics of those, as well as various notes about me as an editor, like my staggering clumsiness. I shall do my best to keep everything civil, fact-based, neutral, and in accordance with the rules.

This user tries to do the right thing. If they make a mistake, please let them know.
Citing sourcesThis user prefers citation templates.
This user respects copyright and other intellectual property rights, but sometimes they can be a major pain.

I will do my best to avoid letting these biases influence my editing. I created this section so that my biases are clear. We can’t overcome our biases if we don’t first acknowledge them.

My Wikiprojects and notable works

To your right you should see a list of various Wikiprojects I am involved in to varying degrees.
