Ever edited the 'pedia?

In the SST forum, users are free to discuss philosophy, music, art, religion, sock colour, whatever. It's a haven from the madness of Bulldrek; alternately intellectual and mundane, this is where the controversy takes place.

Ever edited the 'pedia?

Post by AtemHutlrt »

I was just adding a few details to a Wikipedia article that I am particularly well-qualified to edit, and I decided to go back and check on some of the other random things I recall contributing over the years. I was surprised to see that most of what I added to the plot synopsis of The Tempest is still there, and that was years ago. I don't do a lot of editing, but I feel a sort of civic-duty to add or subtract things here-and-there if it's in one of the very few areas in which I feel I can claim something close to genuine expertise. I'm curious - does anyone else ever contribute to this resource that probably all of us use?

I've considered adding to the various articles concerning my employer, but I probably won't until I retire, quit or am terminated.

I've made substantial contributions to several wikis, but not the big wiki.

Nope. Like most projects online, I'm old, out of date, and if it's something I've never worked with before, I find it safer to run screaming in terror.

I've added some Australian legal stuff here and there when I've seen it was missing, and I've also attempted on several occasions to state that koalas explode when you set them on fire, but they don't believe me. They do, though, we just don't do studies on it because we're not barbarians.

It's pretty bloody funny when it happens, though!
