My contributions might suggest that I'm no longer terribly active on WP, but I do look in every day to keep an eye on vandalism, and to respond to questions about my contributions. I occasionally create short new BLP articles and, more often, shove what is intended to be a helpful oar into talk page discussions
almost-instinct joined Wikipedia becausea-i thought thePhilip Larkin page ought not look likethis
almost-instinct is proud to have help the Philip Larkin look more likethis
almost-instinct felt a sense of pride oncea-i had finished typing inthis
almost-instinct dreams of a whole series of Larkin pages, but has the sense to realise thata-i isn't the editor for the job
almost-instinct very rarely edits in the field in whicha-i is truly knowledgeable; is there an obverse toignorance is bliss?
almost-instinct thinks thatbe bold need not meanbe ignorant and hasty[this is a cute example]
Lord, I am not high-minded : I have no proud looks. I do not exercise myself in great matters : which are too high for me But I refrain my soul, and keep it low, like as a child that is weaned from his mother : yea, my soul is even as a weaned child. O Israel, trust in the Lord : from this time forth for evermore.
almost-instinct has a sense of irony; do you?
