User:Socksage

I am SockSage, amateur copy editor and internet rabbit hole aficionado. Greetings, Wikipedians. Welcome to my Userpage.

Humble Beginnings

One day, I discovered a minor typo in an article that I was reading, and I couldn't let it slide. On that day, I became a Wikipedia editor. For a while, that was all I did -- removing one byte here, adding another there. Now, however, I'm slowly turning into the kind of person who leafs through Norwegian newspaper archives to find references for articles that I have no personal interest in. I don't know what is happening to me.

My Editing Outlook

  1. Be kind and assume good faith.
  2. Consensus is unstable; content is ephemeral.
  3. Pedantry is ideal.
  4. De omnibus dubitandum.
  5. The burden of proof is on you.
  6. Everything in its right place.

Errare humanum est

To err is human, and so am I. I make honest mistakes in my quest for Wikipedia's perfection. I am happy to be contradicted and scrutinized, and I hope that other editors feel the same way. Let us put the encyclopedic project before our own egos.
