Apologies for the scruffy user page. I will do something about it when I've done something decent for the encyclopedia.

Wikiert's status: OUT

Wikiert

I joined Wikipedia on October 23 2008. I like creating templates although I haven't created many yet. Please sign my guestbook! I also have an alternate account named Sockiert for use on shared computers.

When to find me

I will try and get on Wikipedia most days, mainly after 3 o' clock pm because of school, however you may find me around before then if it is the weekend or a holiday period. If my status says I am online before 3 o' clock on a school weekday, then...

• I've forgotten to change my status.

Or, more likely...

• "GET OFF THE INTERNET! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING YOUR EXCEL SPREADSHEET! STAND UP, AND DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT SITTING DOWN UNTIL THE END OF THE LESSON!"

That is all.

My goals

• To improve the coverage of Tamagotchis on Wikipedia.
• To help make sure every Wikipedian has something to do when there's nothing to do, i.e. helping out with the Department of Fun.
• To help out with the Motto of the Day project.

Today's motto...
→ Ladies and Gentlemen, I stand before you now because I never stopped dawdling like an eight-year-old on a spring morning on his way to school. Anything can make me stop and look and wonder, and sometimes learn. I am a very happy man. Thank you.
