Hi. I'm '''Shadowjams'''. Please feel free to comment on my [[User talk:Shadowjams|talk]] page. |
|||
I have been part of this community for a long time. I'm proud of my contributions here. I've interacted with a lot of great people. This is a great project with a lot of great people. Such a small group has done a tremendous amount. |
|||
I am, for the most part, leaving Wikipedia. I no longer have faith in its community governance, or the direction of its general anarchy, an anarchy that I love. I'm leaving because I don't have the patience to deal with certain aspects and tendencies of this community. I'm not nihilistic about its path, but just disappointed. |
|||
This and things associated very closely to it are the only places I use the name '''Shadowjams'''. Anyone else not connected directly to this account using this name is likely not me. |
|||
I may occasionally reappear to curate a small group of articles I was involved in, when necessary. Hopefully in time this will be unnecessary. Beyond that, my substantial editing is over. I wish this project all the best, as I do to all the great editors I've worked with in my time here. |

I created the '''[[User:Shadowjams/Subtle Vandalism Taskforce|Subtle Vandalism Taskforce]]''' or '''SVT'''. It is a group of editors working together to brainstorm ideas on combating subtle errors deliberately introduced to the encyclopedia. I invite anyone interested in this work to join the project and help contribute there. |
