A Bit About Me

I've had this account for some time, but due to school and such, have only been earnestly editing for roughly a month as of March 27th, 2007. And that was spent reading guidelines and studying the habits of other editors so I should do a better job.

I have been chiefly devoting my time to improving the Scientology-based articles here. Don't really have a reason other than that it seemed a decent hobby. I'm thinking of branching out into some other projects, possibly Religion in general.

Currently a student, doing my BA in Lit. and Theology, (double major) so may be prone to patches of spotty attendance here, but will generally answer messages left on my talk page in a timely manner.

Am a practicing Discordian. Make of that what you will. I'm generally considered a black sheep, due to being sane.

That's about all for now.

Departure

I'm mostly leaving the community for work at Citizendium now. Doesn't mean I won't still edit Wikipedia articles, of course! I'm leaving mostly because of some recent incidents. Some of it is worrying about the identity guideline. Some of it is because I usually edit as anons here and see a wide cross section of things. Some of it is the BLP policy. Most of it is Giving In To Known Extortionists. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=136823764&oldid=136823685 This edit] sums it all up. It took maybe thirty seconds for my comments there to get dropped off as unconstructive. I put a certain degree of real thought to them, but was mostly angry. I'll be around, just not on talk pages. It'll mean I get reverted a lot, but occasionally I'll do some good. Cheers. Raeft 13:22, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
