I try to help out wiki as much as I can. Usually just small edits and vandalism reverts. I really enjoy finding, reverting and reporting vandalism. My edits and contributions may seem random because I LOVE the "Random article" button, but I make sure to research every article I edit. When I see a cite request I try my best to find one, when I see a POV statement I make sure to request a cite or remove it. Information you might think "everyone knows" still needs a cite, if anything it helps prevent hoaxes and they make an article more respectable. In my opinion a article for the most part can NOT have too many cites or inline links, and EVERY article needs at least a few references and cites to prevent original work being published on wiki. My personal goal is to try to make wikipedia as accurate, easy to use, and non-POV as possible.
I have a Serious Wikipediholism Problem, especially when it comes to tracking down vandalism, non-encyclopedic articles, and tagging pages with templates. I also try to keep an eye out for ideas to start new articles, but that's pretty damn hard since wikipedia has a article on just about everything you can think of.
I am always on the lookout for vandalism or other articles and statements that are not encyclopedic, Wikipedia is NOT a database for information on everything and everything that happens in the world, it needs to fit the notability guidelines for inclusion in wikipedia, or users like Me will tag and/or remove it.
The <nowiki> tag is used to suppress the interpretation of Wiki markup. This is often useful to demonstrate or explain Wiki markup language to another user.
Wiki markup (and Wiki tags that resemble HTML tags) that are placed between <nowiki> and </nowiki> are not interpreted, and are displayed on the page just the way they are typed. For example, [[this]] would ordinarily form a wikilink, but since it is placed between <nowiki> and </nowiki>, like this: <nowiki>[[this]]</nowiki>, no such link is formed. This is rarely of use in an actual Wikipedia article.
The <nowiki> tag is helpful, for example, when asking questions at the Teahouse and explaining issues at the Village Pump as well as on an article's Talk page. In this case 'the markup code' can be displayed without being actionable.
