Wikipedia editor From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello. One day it occurred to me that I could use piping to do some really ridiculous things.
I'm the guy known by the pseudonym A. Parrot. I've been mistaken for an administrator and a bot, but I am neither. I copyedit, review, and casually edit all over Wikipedia, but my main goal here is to improve articles on ancient Egyptian religion and, to a lesser extent, ancient Egypt in general. I'm increasingly branching out into other ancient Mediterranean religions and the Western esoteric tradition.
Time and again the editors must return to square one and ask themselves, "Is this all there is to the issue? Have I missed anything? Did I leave out or under-emphasize anything that cropped up again and again during my research? Have I overstated anything? Have I organized and presented the information in a way that my audience could intuitively grasp and clearly recall? Did I place myself in the reader's shoes, imagining the basic questions they might ask ('What is the relationship between wind speed and air pressure?'), and writing to the questions?"… The most important question by far is also the most often-omitted: "Why?"
To write rapidly about Egypt is impossible.
Uno itinere non potest perveniri ad tam grande secretum.
