Hi, names Pat. I started out editing Wikipedia more than 15 years ago when my interests were "electric bicycle" or "power-assisted bicycle"(PAB). You may find me occasionally contributing information and, most importantly, updating references to articles with relevant and sometimes inaccessible sources. I love attention to details and will likely contribute adversarial information that is very well sourced and referenced.

I contribute to the following Wikimedia projects:

• Wikipedia
• English & [http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:CyclePat French] (See languages sidebar)
• EN-Wikinews,
• EN-Wikimedia Commons,
• EN-Wikibooks.

• EN-Wiktionary

On Wikipedia I predominantly contribute to the transportation related articles. OC Transpo, Vehicle, Motorized bicycle. The same can be said about wikibooks with the "How-To" book I started called How To Ride The Bus. Currently I have created or am working on:

• User:CyclePat/Rhumart
• Paciocco
• Ottawa Islands
• Probative

Unencyclopedia is a comical dictionary which in january 2007, I recently began editing under the same alias. I founded the new article Pork and beans ([http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Pork_and_beans link here to unencyclopedia]) and have add some jokes about Stephen Harper.

How to encode OGG files

• From other media sources (such as [[commons:Image:GloriaGregorianChant.ogg|

.wav files of me singing]]) using BeSweet v1.4, BeSweetGUI v0.6b61, and most importantly The OggMachine v0.62[http://dspguru.doom9.net/]. Also since I use windows vista I had to download msvbvm50.exe directly from Microsoft to run the GUI.

• Use Switch Sound File Converter Unlicensed Basic Free Version... convert the file... upload... and since I don't have to codec to listen to it on my computer, listen to it on Wikipedia's java thingy ([http://www.nch.com.au/switch]

Though du life in general

:In life, and relationships, it's not always fair. You'll give more. You may become frustrated when people don't do what is necessary or what you expect of them. A philosophy that you should live by, which I must thank my neighbor for explaining, is to do what you believe is the best. Do what is right, even though it's more than your share of the work. In love and relationships you must give what is needed and, sometimes, this is more than what you would like to give. This is when you'll realize that you are not only living to your fullest but also being the best you can be, which should, despite any frustrations of perhaps having to do extra work, make you a happy person!

Image:Webcomic xkcd - Wikipedian protester.png strip entitled "Wikipedian Protestor." This image goes to all the hypocritical wikipedians that have pissed me off by putting unsourced information back into an article and claiming disruptive editing, lack of good faith and lack of Consensus. Clearly this contradict Wikipedia's fundemental rules for Citation and Verifiable content and leads to enraged comments (BEGIN FLAME) such as the term "Fuck you! (END FLAME)]]

At Wikipedia, points of view (POV) are often essential to articles which treat controversial subjects. In The Globe and mail on February 20th 2006 at page A14 in the Section of Social Studies, sub-section A daily miscellany of Information, micheal Kesteron cited Harold Geneen in his Though du jour and stated:

:"The reliability of the person giving you the facts is as important as the facts themselves. Keep in mind that facts are seldom facts, but what people think are facts, heavily tinged with assumptions."

Hard facts are really rare. What we most commonly encounter are opinions from people (POV's). Inherently, because of this, most articles at wikipedia are full of POV's. An article which clearly, accurately, and fairly describes all the major points of view will, by definition, be in accordance with Wikipedia's official "Neutral Point of View" policy.
