Philosophy

The Moving Finger writes: and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.

— Omar Khayyám

Association of Inclusionist Wikipedians

I consider myself to be something of an inclusionist — that is, I generally prefer for low-quality articles to be improved rather than deleted. This results in a greater number of high-quality articles for Wikipedia. I also feel that obscure subjects should be covered, provided that articles about them are useful, informative, and neutral. We are effectively free of the space constraints of traditional encyclopedias, and we should be playing to our strengths in that respect. ("borrowed" from user:Factitious)
