I, Me, Myself

I created a username on Wikipedia on 24th April 2009, so that I don't make changes in articles with anonymous ISP addresses, so that I can have greater access rights and learn more... I've browsed wikipedia for years, since 2003, and I used to edit articles anonymously without a username... I wonder why I didnt create one earlier, it has been a great experience so far! :-) And a loooong way to go in the learning, I am sooo illiterate at wikiing! :-)

My wikipediholism test says, "You are heavily addicted to Wikipedia and are showing symptoms of Wikipediholism." :-D

The marabou stork (Leptoptilos crumenifer) is a wading bird in the stork family, Ciconiidae, native to sub-Saharan Africa. It is a large bird, with individuals reaching a height of 152 centimetres (4.99 feet) and a weight of 9 kilograms (20 lb), and has the largest wingspan of any land bird, with an average of 2.6 metres (8.5 ft) and some recorded examples of up to 3.2 metres (10 ft). The marabou stork breeds in Africa south of the Sahara. In East Africa, the birds interact with humans and breed in urban areas. In southern African countries, the birds breed mainly in less populated areas. This marabou stork in flight was photographed in the town of Batu, by Lake Ziway, Ethiopia.Photograph credit: Charles J.

Tip of the day...

What did they say?

Sometimes Wikipedians sound like they are speaking in a foreign language, even when they are not. This is because Wikipedians have created a great number of specialized terms (jargon) pertaining to Wikipedia and the activity of Wikipedians. Fortunately, being the encyclopedists that they are, they have also created a Wikipedia Glossary to explain these terms.

Remember, actual encyclopedia articles should be written in jargon-free language which is readily understandable without specific knowledge of the Wikipedia project.
