Like the scientists in Jurassic Park, I sometimes seem to get so preoccupied with whether I could do something that I get bold and don't stop to think if I should do it. Sometimes, hindsight reveals that something I've tried might not have been so right to go ahead with after all. This is why I created the userbox {{user preoccupied}}. Here are some examples of mistaken decisions and "What was I thinking?" moments:

  • December 22, 2024: Moving the then-draft article about Mr. Beat into the mainspace prematurely. On January 13, 2025, the article was nominated for deletion, and the discussion ended in favor of deletion on February 1 after Mr. Beat himself brought up the discussion page on Bluesky. Although he didn't explicitly ask people to participate, his mention of it on social media arguably constituted off-wiki canvassing as far as Wikipedians were concerned. On February 5, I successfully asked for the article to be restored as a draft, and it sat in draftspace until April 6, 2026, when it was finally reintroduced into the mainspace for good.

There may also be moments where I come up with a solution in the middle of a predicament and end up wishing that the idea had come to me sooner.

Although I struggle to wait for some long-lasting discussions to be brought to a conclusion, I've also occasionally wanted a discussion to continue for a bit longer, especially if hardly anyone has said anything in it. When someone suggests closing a discussion I've started that hasn't gotten very many responses at all, I tend to be like But I want to know what other people think of this thing first! If this discussion gets closed early, they'll no longer have a chance to say anything here!


The best way to get the correct answer isn't to ask a question, but to say the wrong answer.

Sometimes, things have to get really dumb before they can even start to get smart.

I may have made a lot of silly mistakes in the past, some of them I really wish didn't exist. But looking back, all of those mistakes led up to who I am today. If I hadn't had made those mistakes in the past, making them in the future will be inevitable, and it is only through learning from our [unintelligible] mistakes do we become better at what we do.

Practice over theory: Stop reading those endless tutorials. Yes, maybe read a bit. You need to learn the fundamentals, but you often learn a lot faster by doing the task and failing. This way, you can self-correct and learn a lot.

Sometimes it seems that to move blocks is fine, and the lines will be formed as they fall. Then I see that I have misjudged it. I should not have nudged it after all.

Mainspace introductions

[edit]

I might create an article (or move a draft into the mainspace) if either of the following apply to its content:

  1. It appears adequate such that I believe it may remain in the mainspace for the foreseeable future, even in more or less its current state.
  2. If seemingly inadequate at first, I believe it may be improved by other editors so it can avoid being deleted. (as had happened to November 2025 United States military video controversy)
  3. I'm willing to risk losing it because most or all of its information is already present in other Wikipedia articles. (as had been the case for List of brands notable for sponsorships with content creators)

I do that instead of submitting drafts and consider speedy and proposed deletions undesirable because I don't want to take only the word of one or two users for it; I prefer for articles to receive scrutiny from several users so that, if an article is deleted, I can potentially learn more about why its subject should continue to be excluded than if I were to have submitted a draft and waited for a review from one user.

The table below includes:

It doesn't include:

  • Episode lists, disambiguation pages, redirects (e.g. The Book of Bill), set index articles, or "navigation pages" (e.g. Goldie (TV series))
  • Drafts I submitted or moved to the mainspace but contributed little or no meaningful content to (e.g. Mr. Beat)
  • Drafts I've added a noticeable amount of content to, but didn't submit or move into the mainspace myself (e.g. List of Battle for Dream Island characters)
  • Drafts where all I've done was add categories or sources, remove bad content additions, and copyedit text that had been put there by other users (e.g. Skillsville)

A noticeable amount of content had been added to this article by other users, or this article started out as a copy of a draft from someone else's userspace.

Most or all of the content I contributed to this article was straight up copied from one or more other English Wikipedia articles or pages on other Wikimedia projects.

A noticeable amount of the content I contributed to this page was machine-translated from an equivalent article on a Wikipedia in another language. English, my native language, is the only one I'm fluent in.

Some of my favorite chart images

[edit]
  1. I always thought it was fitting that a Chinese sign said that.
  2. The very first comment invoked WP:JUSTDOIT, which turned out to be erroneous advice in hindsight.
  3. Which is why that project page was called that in the XfD discussion.
  4. I wasn't aware of it until this point. At the time, I first thought up the concept of a move review as something analogous to deletion review, and I wondered if it was even a thing, so I decided to see if it was.
  5. Articles in this column have not been nominated for deletion, proposed deletion, speedy deletion, nor merging, nor have they been turned into redirects since they were last introduced.
  6. Articles that have been nominated or tagged for deletion may remain under this column until an outcome is decided.
  7. Articles in this column have been nominated for deletion, proposed deletion, speedy deletion, or merging, but have been kept; or briefly converted into redirects.
  8. Articles in this column have been deleted, draftified, or merged.
  9. This series is in development, so it's likely too soon for there to be an article about this series.
  10. Formerly a single article titled List of world map changes
  11. How so?
    I only have 4 GB of RAM, so my computer tends to have "slow moments" (especially when trying to use a web browser while Roblox is running), so I have Task Manager and the Process Manager tab open all the time just in case. Unfortunately, now is apparently a bad time to wish for more.
