;Metaphor: There are many more fish in the sea.

File:MorningtonCrescent roundel.jpg

;'Pataphor: The sea has become so heavily polluted and overfished that all the good fish are going extinct. Ironically, although these seas and oceans are warmer, the healthy fish are becoming lethargic, being replaced by gigantic invading jellyfish that arrive in the ocean's dead zones, spurned by eutrophication, ocean acidification and toxic waste dumps.

;Pedagogy: Wikipedia editors can use reliable sources to make these connections, although the chains of cause-and-effect are indeed very complex. This is a great way for us encyclopedians to educate the world. Just try to avoid undue synthesis and original research.

;Extended anagogy (no article - anagogy): What does free really mean? Is it an unbound significance, freedom of the mind to transcend barriers, or simply the very nature of the Internet? Everything nowadays seems to be institutionalized. Yet Wikipedia, just by its logo, signifies a vast collection of puzzle pieces, for to assemble an infinite puzzle. Some may say it will never be completed, but then again, neither is the very essense of human knowledge. You see, humanity stands at a tipping point, not because of some aforementioned doomsday, but rather the awakening of its peoples. We have come to realize that the omnipresent barriers, seemingly brick walls, are all but façades created by the illusion of their own presence. Impenetrable, as they say, but neither the human mind nor the creative works of such can be unsurmountable as such. All it takes is a little psychological resilience. We live within such a web, the portrayal of communication, the lacking of context as we suffer the news fatigue of the day, not willing to take a moment to remember. Yet what is there to remember, despite the vast cacophony of bogged-down memorization and little else to seek, that which is here? Well, who knows, and how, for that matter. All I know is that this is a reminiscence of purpose, the very purpose of purpose itself, as well as Wikipedia, without context, which of course, is ultimately unnecessary, for this is a run-on sentence. Time is ticking, yet your mind is becoming faster. The infinite train continues to chug on, as the corollary of the human existence meets its unrivalled end, that is, a new beginning. You see, every minute is the end of something, and the beginning of something, and it is your mind that decides which exists the resemblence of hitherto unknown polluted references. Just make sure to cite your sources. Good luck. Your journey awaits.

;Metaphilosophy: We stand to face the politics of politics, the nature of nature and the knowledge of knowledge itself, both within and without. NPOV, therefore, is simply an omnipresent tone of voice, without necessitating an actual omnipresence amidst an uncountable infinity. As within, so as without therefore.

::Edit summary [http://www.math.ucla.edu/~aoleg/wp/rfa/edit_summary.cgi?user=AstroHurricane001 usage]

Hi! Welcome to my user page. I have been an editor on this community project for six years, and I am rather highly experienced on {{abbr|Wikipedia|Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia that you can edit. We have over 250 different language versions, as well as sister projects. Contributing is FREE, but you can also donate if you wish to help the Wikimedia Foundation.}}, recently being listed on Most active Wikipedians (warning: link may freeze slower browsers). I've worked on articles relating to many different topics here, and contributed to regular updating of current event articles, reverting vandalism, helping out in discussions and projects, and more. Some of my work has also focused on improving specific articles, and building them to higher levels of assessment ratings. My editing sometimes declines and other times picks back up, as real-life duties often limit my time for editing. However, there are still times for rapid editing sprees.

Nowadays, I do some article planning, rather than just pure article expansion and updating. One issue we currently have in our featured articles is that the addition of new content sometimes renders the remainder of the article unreadable. Sometimes it is necessary to refactor content so that only the most important facts and information, displayed alongside references of course, is displayed on a top-quality article. As I also said several years ago, long-term Wikipedia editing is likely to result in noticeable health effects, of which a significant portion of mine I attribute to Wikipedia. Still, I wonder how netizens in the Arab countries seem to be able to better mitigate their use of time, rather than get bogged down on tedious to-do lists that have replaced much of the Western lifestyle.

Thus, in order to upgrade the project in new ways, I suggest the use of techniques for expanding article topics and improving quality. One would be having a conceptual outline for new articles, and then collecting relevant information that fits the article according to such an outline. Techniques may be entirely independent, rather than rigid or strictly determined by the associated WikiProjects. Some contributors would argue that Wikipedia is failing to meet its goals, while others would state otherwise; certain people also suggest that Assume Good Faith has become meaningless or that "Be Bold" hardly attracts newcomers. I would argue for a balanced approach, including making use of insightful discussions on project pages, rather than standard routine Watchlisting which does get boring after a while.

I do a wide variety of editing on Wikipedia, in many namespaces. You can check my contributions here. I have also contributed to three Did You Know?s {14px}, and made several successful nominations for In the news {14px}.

These are my sandbox pages and already have real articles (which I didn't create but have edited both):

• The Lake Erie Snowstorm
• The Vancouver area rainstorms

These are primarily to test my editing skills, to put my userboxes, or to say hello:

• Userboxes
• Trivia and Random Knowledge
• Sign here
• My SANDBOX

I currenly keep Wikiproject-related userboxes here, and they currently have no effect on the Userboxes Subpage.

{{-}}

I just recently started creating my own userboxes, so I put them here. These Userboxes don't affect the Userbox subpage. Some userboxes are in subpages that are not linked.

{{Userbox

|id = TEST

|info = This userbox is a test from my sandbox.
