This is your friendly local IP-only reader/editor who has been watching all edits, and is not surprised at all that you've reached 1000. Not saying that those To Be Deleted taggings, etc, weren't relevent, but probably not all so urgent or important. (And not entirely sure they're all correct, strictly, but it's not my call whether to go with them or not.) There's at least two possibly worrying ends to all this: 1) You burn yourself out, leaving your "great task" of rectifying all wrongness in a fruitlessly incomplete state, with or without continuing life-long pain from your badly healed wrist, or 2) You do it; *everything* is made right, or at least labeled correctly and awaiting others' input to complete, but you're still hungry for more and can't stop and drift into clearly unnecessary (if not actually counterproductive) edits just because you have by now become a compulsive editor shooting for the Moon (or, at least, even further up the edits table) adding and removing (or removing and adding) vaguely ambiguous commas just for the fun of it, or similarly inconsequential acts just to 'chase the dragon' of editing. And all to a barely significant increase in the world's happiness, wealth and/or health. Believe me, I know what it's like to be monomaniacal in such a way. Take a deep breath and consider why this has (seemingly) become your main outlet for either your post-wrist recovery or even your pre-wrist life.  ...and I'm just saying this out of concern, in a way you're welcome (encouraged!) to remove after reading. Just between me, you and anybody else who keeps a close eye on all page edits like this. ;) Much regards, and hopefully being read in the spirit intended. --random IP (imagine the ~~~~ bit working here, ok?) -->

Hi! If you see this, you have reached my user page! I’m 14, live in California, love reading, and started reading Randall’s works (What If?, Thing Explainer, XKCD) in 2018. I started editing on Feb. 1, 2024. I've done 5,845 changes across 4,226 pages, bringing to a total of 4,306 point contribution score. My goals for this wiki? I want to fix all the [citation needed] grammatical mistakes, putting punctuation BEFORE the citation.

My loves:
•Hatsune Miku 🥰
•Classical music-Beethoven
•Reading (seriously. I will read any book you give me. I will read the ingredients off the back of a mustard bottle for fun. I read an entire scientific encyclopaedia during the lockdown.)
•ao3
•Pokémon cards (I have a pretty solid portfolio/collection)
•Bluey (yes, I enjoy watching a preschool show. sue me.)
•Harry Potter (the book series)
•Sciences
•Maths

Log:
•yayyyyy only 3 months on the wiki and already 43rd place in overall editing for the entire history of this wiki! also, first admin beat in edit count! more edits to come! (5/14/2024)
•42nd place-the answer to life, the universe and everything else (5/16/2024)
•what on earth did I do that made my contribution score jump 70 points (9/24/2024)
•must…figure…out…how…to…set…up…a…custom…sig (collapses after fighting with wikitext) (9/26/2024)
•300 edits in a month! (10/1/2024, 2:13 PM PST)
•broke my right wrist and yet I’m still editing this wiki at the hospital-what the hell am I doing with my life. (10/1/2024, 5:24 PM PST)
•1000. EFFING. EDITS. YESSSSSSSSS. (I’m doing this edit with a damn cast 😭-I really need to take a break.) (10/1/2024, 6:20 PM PST)

To do list:
•learn to use the goddamned preview button
•fix the grammatical placement of punctuation before using [citation needed]
•get a life
•create a bot that fixes grammatical mistakes through the Pywiki library
•clean out the maintenance report pages
