About Me
I have been an editing Wikipedians since about December 2004 and as I have edited pages and visited various community portal pages I have developed a few views on Wikipedia.
Positive:
The idea of an online community based around an open source free editing encyclopedia is great.
Being able to create new pages and being able to change pages on the internet for anyone to read is ingenious
Each user having there own editing account is good as-well
Negative
The way other users critisise you for anything THEY disagree with, or THEY do not like
Accusations: When I was new to Wiki I posted a vote on a candidate or VFD page and an older user pounced on me accusing me of being a sockpuppet under the bare evidence I had made 39 edits. I have seen this a number of times in other cases.
The way users sometimes completely undermine Wikipedia rules, or when users suck up to Administators
