About me

[edit]

I am a Finance major at the University of Central Florida.

I'm a relatively new user, and I'm trying to learn as much as I can about how to make Wikipedia the best it can be. If I do something wrong or you have something you think I should know, just post on my talk page. I will get back to you relatively quickly.

Favorite Quotes

[edit]

The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, "You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done." -George Carlin

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bike. Then I realised that The Lord doesn't work that way, so I stole one and asked him to forgive me. -- Emo Philips

When I was a kid my favorite relative was Uncle Caveman. After school we'd all go play in his cave, and every once in a while he would eat one of us. It wasn't until later that I found out that Uncle Caveman was a bear. -- Jack Handey

My mom was a ventriloquist and she always was throwing her voice. For ten years I thought the dog was telling me to kill my father. -- Wendy Leibman

I sold my house this week. I got a pretty good price for it, but it made my landlord mad as hell. -- Garry Shandling

We used to play spin the bottle when I was a kid. A girl would spin the bottle and if it pointed to you when it stopped, the girl could either kiss you or give you a dime. By the time I was 14, I owned my own home. -- Gene Perret

There is only one sure way to win at Roulette... steal the chips from the table. --Einstein

Murphy's Law for Cartoon Gravity: Any body suspended in space will remain in space until made aware of its situation. Daffy Duck steps off a cliff, expecting further pastureland. He loiters in midair, soliloquizing flippantly, until he chances to look down. At this point, the familiar principle of 32 feet per second per second takes over.

Disclosures

[edit]

If you have an issue with one of my edits/reverts, go immediatley to my talk page and/or the disscussion board for that article and post your concerns. Without doing so, I will probably ignore you.

To do list

[edit]

These are some wiki tasks I intend to tackle as time permits

Tip of the Day

[edit]
The lead section

The lead section is an essential summary of an article, located above the first heading.

In the source text (the text in the edit window), a heading looks like this:

== This is a heading ==

The lead section is a very important part of every article. The length should correspond to the overall length of the article: an article of 50,000 characters might well have a three paragraph lead, while one of 15,000 or less should limit itself to one or two paragraphs. The text should give a good overview of the article, but it should also get the reader hooked and interested in learning more. Take a look at some featured articles for inspiration.

It is often a good idea to align a representative image with the lead by placing [[File:Filename.jpg|thumb|caption]] just before the first heading. (Filename is the name of the desired file and caption is a description of the image).
