I'm disgusted by how non-neutral POV most of the prep school articles are, and I'm working to correct that where I can. When people who are themselves alumni of prep schools – and therefore can empathize with the tendency of alumni to wax poetic about their school – critique POV-related stuff, it comes across as less of an intrusion. Hence, I try to do what I can to make articles more encylcopedic; it's good for your school if your article conforms to Wikipedia standards! |

Hi There
Hi, I'm a college sophomore at Princeton University from Storrs, CT. I rely on Wikipedia for most basic factual information (though not for academic or research possibilities) and have loved it since I fell in love with it last summer.

Pages I haev created:
Pages I have re-written or contributed significant amounts of text to:
- SPS, the boarding school I attended *A side note: a certain someone's user page claims they wrote a significant portion of the page. Don't believe the hype.
- Acura
- Infiniti
- Jean Harris
Also: I do grammar stuff. I'm also interested in making Wikipedia's articles on automobiles better, as they are sorely lacking. I find Wikiauto to be a travesty of car information. It should be abandoned. I'm disgusted by how non-neutral POV most of the prep school articles are, and I'm working to correct that where I can. When people who are themselves alumni of prep schools – and therefore can empathize with the tendency of alumni to wax poetic about their school – critique POV-related stuff, it comes across as less of an intrusion. Hence, I try to do what I can to make articles more encylcopedic; it's good for your school if your article conforms to Wikipedia standards! I am a strong inclusionist.
