Here's my bio, totally not taken straight from somewhere else
, I solemnly swear on my knee-length hair... which i don't appear to have :(

I like programming, computer science, internet surfing, and superuser impostoring. I've been described as a "wonderful bastard".

I also like clearing maintenance queues. I like getting pinged when you need help.

I also write some userscripts, including /Watchlyst Greybar Unsin, /MoveTop and m:User:Aaron Liu/What redirects here.js.
As a Vector 2022 fanatic, I've created my own enhancements of it at m:User:Aaron Liu/v22.css based on User:Jonesey95/common.css.
I license all of these under the GNU Affero General Public License v3 or later.

You may know me from WP:RSP and WP:S++... which I have been neglecting. Stay tuned for my next misadventure into what the hell is he even doing

Glossary

[edit]
CamelCase shortcuts (e.g. WP:AssumeGoodFaith)
I am an endorser of The SamuelRiv CamelCase shortcuts normalization idea. Therefore, I pipe shortcuts like WP:AGF into WP:AssumeGoodFaith to give newbies a guess at their meaning and minimize shouting while still showing that the link is a shortcut.
CamelCase nicks for usernames (e.g. onLiu)
I like to believe everything across the Wikipedias would benefit from some more collegiality. Rather than naming you like some elementary-school disciplinary octogenerian, how about something whimsical that also disambiguates from every other similar username? Apologies in advance if I make anyone uncomfortable by doing this, and tell me you don't like it and I'll stop calling you by these names.
nosist
A person who refers to themself using the first-person plural, a.k.a. using the we/our pronouns. Employed by some pluralists. I did this for a while before I was banned from a Discord server I love and sometimes still do it. I am not a pluralist.
they (is)
Sometimes plural, sometimes not. When singular, you bet I'll conjugate them verbs with an s just like he/she, consistent conjugation conventions goddammit
ze/zim/zir
Due to popular pushback I have been adopting somehow-more-mainstream neopronouns instead. The casual ear believes this is just a German accent and the casual reader ignores conjugation; everyone's happy!
Anony
A way to humanize TA editors. When more than one, use references to numbers as if they were spelt out in a username.
hagiography
Trigger word. Oracle of discussions to catalyze into flames.
nomm'd
A telltale sign that one is a Wifione sockpuppet, despite the entire word being orthographically and grammatically correct. The people who say "nom'd" are the true freaks. Check their basements for scraps of bibuled babies.

Association of Wikipedians Who Dislike Making Broad Judgments About the Worthiness of a General Category of Article, and Who Are in Favor of the Deletion of Some Particularly Bad Articles, but That Doesn't Mean They Are Deletionists

Est omnino difficile iudicare inclusionis meritum cuiusdam rei in encyclopædia cum ratio sciendi quid populi referat incerta sit, sed nihilominus aliquid encyclopædiam dedecet

It is generally difficult to judge the worthiness of a particular topic for inclusion in an encyclopedia considering that there is no certain way to know what interests people, but some topics nevertheless are not fit for an encyclopedia.

This motto reflects the desire of these Wikipedians to be reluctant, but not entirely unwilling, to remove articles from Wikipedia.
