I watched @molly0xfff 's video 'Become a Wikipedian in 30 minutes' and before I knew it I had edited a dozen pages. All of them about random subjects, so I expect to ace all future pub quizzes and trivia nights. Most of all, I'm finally contributing to #Wikipedia and enjoying it a lot!

@span gabrielheinrichs @span molly0xfff It is unfortunately impossible to contribute to wikipedia if you use tor or a proxy to ensure your personal safety

@gabrielheinrichs @molly0xfff the first wikipedia article i ever wrote was this one:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kostroma_Nuclear_Power_Plant

the stupidest article ever, i know. it's about a power plant that doesn't exist. fully sourced and everything, with proper citations.

wikipedia is great.

@gabrielheinrichs @molly0xfff another thing i did that same week, was expand this article:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Assmann

found it by clicking "random article". the english article was a short stub, and a notice was provided, suggesting that the original german article be re-translated. so i did that.

i find it funny that, like, some random austrian museum curator has a wikipedia page. also the photo got updated on the german article when i checked it. i found it funny so i've put him on my desktop:

linux lxde desktop with wallpaper being a photo of Peter Assmann, a noteworthy austrian museum curator.
