Time for a Wikibreak[edit]

I had a convo with the Holy Spirit this afternoon. She said I could deal with whatever awaited me for calling out one of the cool kids, and deal with it as I see fit, but after that, I was to make no edits which I could not mark as "minor" for a year.

And I've dealt with it to my complete satisfaction, and therefore...

...it's typo fixes and grammar corrections for me, for a year! Wheee! THAT is how much I love that woman!

See you later!

-''When you wake up in the morning, tell yourself: the people I deal with today will be meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous and surly. They are like this because they can't tell good from evil. But I have seen the beauty of good, and the ugliness of evil, and have recognized that the wrongdoer has a nature related to my own - not of the same blood and birth, but the same mind, and possessing a share of the divine. And so none of them can hurt me. No one can implicate me in ugliness. Nor can I feel angry at my relative, or hate him. We were born to work together like feet, hands and eyes, like the two rows of teeth, upper and lower. To obstruct each other is unnatural. To feel anger at someone, to turn your back on him: these are unnatural. - Marcus Aurelius''

-I spend 80% of my time on Wikipedia fighting vandalism, because I'm good at it and for some reason I have the stomach for it. We all bring our particular gifts to the project, and that is mine. The other 15% is Wikignoming, with the last 5% being tending to articles I have particular interest in (which is eclectic).
-As such, I encounter many edit warriors, many of them with, as they say, "more issues than Newsweek". Many of them will project their motivations on me. Some of them will accuse me of that which they themselves are guilty of (e.g. edit warring).
-And there will be, and have been, times I have made mistakes, and been called out on it. But unlike many editors who favor deleting such nastiness, or "archiving" it, it is my intention to leave all such verbiage as are not in violation of policy on my talk page.
-So if you and I, for some reason, have a dispute, I trust you will not look at my talk page, see the lashings out against me, and attempt to use that as ammunition in Wikicourt, because it will not work. In my almost 20 years of editing, I have never been sanctioned in any way for any edit I have ever made on any article. I am protective of the project, and respect it too much to ever willingly bring any harm to it.
