General Info

[edit]
Gerard guards this page against vandals.
  • Hi. I'm Bratsche. Some call me Ben. You can try either; I'll get back to you after the beep.
  • I'm a student, who likes to read and fix mistakes. Wikipedia just fulfills my editorial cravings.
  • Since I don't have much in-depth knowledge of any one subject, but rather a mind full of trivia, I'm on a personal mission to destroy vandalism, delete nonsense and do basic janitorial work with my mop.
  • By the way, Bratsche means viola in German, my musical instrument of choice
  • I recently achieved a Wikipediholic test score of 237, making me "fatally addicted".
  • I am an Eagle Scout, a proud accomplishment.
  • Feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you need any help, have any questions, or just want to chat.

Missions

[edit]
  • I have a mission to help with as many Wiki Fixup Projects as I can. They usually give me a quick Wikifix during the day.
    • Actually, the random page button is really nice to use too, in order to find needy articles
  • Currently watching: Special:Recentchanges. Back on RC patrol. Using CryptoDerk's Vandal Fighter.
  • You know, the above are hopelessly outdated. So, FYI, I mostly work on Esperanza, the organization for Wikipedians and doing menial admin tasks.

A Poem and More

[edit]
Echoing silence
Darkness lit up by beams
Light
Seeking its counterpart
In melody
Stillness
Striving for liberations
In a word
Life
In dust
In shadow
How seldom growth and blossom
How seldom fruit
-Dag Hammarskjöld
Jimbo Quotes!
"Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That’s what we’re doing." -28 Jul 2004
"We make the Internet not suck." -25 Sep 2005
"Userboxes of a political or, more broadly, polemical, nature are bad for the project." -21 Jan 2006
"... [T]he number of userboxes, and in particular the number of very problematic userboxes, has exploded. I think this is seriously Not Good For Our Loving Little Community." -15 Feb 2006

Est omnino difficile iudicare inclusionis meritum cuiusdam rei in encyclopædia cum ratio sciendi quid populi referat incerta sit, sed nihilominus aliquid encyclopædiam dedecet

It is generally difficult to judge the worthiness of a particular topic for inclusion in an encyclopedia considering that there is no certain way to know what interests people, but some topics nevertheless are not fit for an encyclopedia.

This motto reflects the desire of these Wikipedians to be reluctant, but not entirely unwilling, to remove articles from Wikipedia.


My Latin Motto

Scientia lapsu calami

Danafungia scruposa
Danafungia scruposa is a species of coral found in the eastern and western Indian Ocean, the eastern central, northwestern and western central Pacific Ocean, Japan, the East China Sea, the Red Sea, and eastern Australia. It is around 25 centimetres (9.8 inches) in diameter and normally consumes a variety of food from bacteria to mesozooplankton measuring 1 mm (0.039 in) in diameter. During an algal bloom in 2009, researchers observed D. scruposa consuming the jellyfish Aurelia aurita, the first time such behaviour had been seen in the wild. This D. scruposa coral was photographed in the Red Sea off the Egyptian coast.Photograph credit: Diego Delso
