After my experience in DMOZ, I have carefully NOT joined Wikipedia as an editor. However, I make minor spelling, grammatical and/or stylistic changes when I notice the need. I also correct obvious factual errors. I usually don't introduced NEW facts, but I delete false existing ones if I notice them.
And hey -- if I'm not perfect by the standards of "No Original Research" or even "Neutral Point of View", I don't have a role that allows me to be punished. I just move things in the right direction (by Wikipedia's standards as I understand them) as far as I can be bothered to, then go on with my life.
- jholman 12y agoIf you are making changes when you notice the need (and thank you for that work!), then you ARE an editor of Wikipedia. That's what that word means.
- CurtMonash 12y agoTrue enough. But I'm not a member of the organization. :)
