Nescio is Latin for 'I don't know.' Experience tells me that to most of us that "seems to be the hardest word." Feel free to suggest or comment. Always happy to learn.

Number of Wikipedia articles to date 6,936,642

The current date and time is 7 January 2025 T 17:04 UTC.

Intro

Nescio is my way of saying: 'don't be arrogant you are not the keeper of the truth.' It of course refers to Socrates who demonstrated the principle some time ago, Manuel from Fawlty Towers and Nescio the Dutch writer.

Committed identity calculated here and first used on this page on July 9, 2007 at 10:32h.[1]

Coincidence does exist

Disruptive editors that made me lose my cool in the past and who oddly enough in some way or other knew each other:

Merecat (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) made me start a RFC against him turned out to be the notorious bannned user Rex071404 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log).
BlueGoose (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) stepped in to defend Merecat on his RFC and was part of a sockpuppetring votestacking an AfD on a controversial topic. And he too had an alter ego: Brownman40 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log).
Thewolfstar (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) stepped in to defend Merecat on his RFC.
Zer0faults (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) while I never seen him before commented in Merecat's RFC to defend him (?!), subsequently beacame a tendentious editor who changed username to NuclearUmpf (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) after ArbCom put him on probation. He reappeared, and got blocked again, as SevenOfDiamonds.

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts. -- Bertrand Russell
