Hi all. Feel free to look around my profile, promise there's a lot of interesting info to be found! Admin that come across this, I would greatly appreciate your taking a look at the section titled "Issues I've noticed". Otherwise, if there's anything you need, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page! All the best.
Impact
[edit]Bio (Please read!)
[edit]Hi everyone, I'm CSGinger14. I figure my departure from my original goals stated in February warrants a longer bio. I'm from the US State of Virginia, and have worked for a long time in campaign politics (though have since stopped), and am currently pursuing a bachelors degree in international history. I have a minor in French language studies and would love to expand the American and West-Hemispheric article base of fr.wikipedia.org to anyone that would be willing to assist me. I've also studied Swahili for 2 and a half years, and would be very interested in expanding the Swahili article base for anyone that could help me with template mechanisms, image attributions, etc. I'd also like to assist in building a more cohesive listing and detailing of charitable organizations in the United States, as well additions to and creation of pages on rights violations (abuses against the homeless[1][2][3] / at-risk youth isolation programs[4][5][6][7] / psych-ward insurance fraud[8][9] / etc.) that have occurred frequently in the United States in recent memory. I'd love any help anyone could provide, sourcing especially would be greatly appreciated.
You can find my Kiswahili Wikipedia User page here. I’ll add one for French soon as well.
Why I'm Here
[edit]I'm a student of every school my brain can get the slightest grasp on. I've been using Wikipedia for years, and by God has it saved me more times than I'm willing to admit. I owe an astonishing amount to this site, and I see this as my way of paying it forward. You can find me all across Wikipedia, but you'll find I'll be the most help assisting in topics related to current events, culture, history, anthropology, theology, geography, demography, sociology, psychology, environmental science, linguistics, politics, economics, ethnography, and earth science. I'll also occasionally add links and do fixes to a number of random articles at once, Link bridging and clean ups aren't usually followed by substantive additions to the article, but please let me know if I came across one and you'd like help with it.
One of my greatest blessings is an ability to quickly reason out the fundamental links between different sources of information within or between any number of topics, so long as I have a reasonable base understanding of the material; you hand me 2 sources, I'll give you 25. One of my principal goals in assisting with this project is to increase the access of all people to scholarship which I feel is needlessly restricted or hidden in the interests of profit, threatening the access of all to our species' knowledge on that topic in the future. Learning to find information on your own is a valuable skill, but I think we delude ourselves in thinking that anyone can garner that skill without first having learned where they need to look.[10][11]
Notice on politics and political bias
[edit]This page is not political, and I make a great effort to limit my bias in the pages I create or make additions to. My personal morality affects the perspective through which I look at an issue, but I'm not allegiant to any party or interest group, and I don't appreciate any accusations thereof. I believe that life and existence is suffering and the only way that we face that is if we make a real, genuine effort to love, respect, and care for everyone, regardless of who they are, what they believe, where they come from, how much wealth they have, or what mistakes they've made. In the realm of cosmic statistics, you are infinitely unique, but you could have been anyone, in any position. The fact that you aren't doesn't earn you any additional respect, right, or worth. That doesn't make everyone worthless, though. It makes everyone's life infinitely more meaningful. The only people that are truly irredeemable in life are those who never learn that ultimately, at some point, they should feel some sense of responsibility towards someone other than themselves. I don't mean this as an attack on anyone or their struggles. You deserve sympathy for them as much as anyone else. But that's exactly my point. You deserve sympathy for those struggles as much as anyone else.
I really will try to include all sides interests in the conversation. I say this because I tend to make very large and expansive edits at once. However, accurately representing all sides doesn't always leave an issue looking neutral. That isn't my fault, but if you feel that I've grossly misrepresented a conversation, please let me know. I will be happy to make additions if you yourself don't feel comfortable making edits outside of user-spaces, but I ask for reputable references that support those claims in advance.
Feel free to take a look around my profile. If there any groups you think I could be of assistance to, by all means let me know. Otherwise, my best wishes to all of you and hopes for the safety and well-being of you and your loved ones.
Let us hope not for a better world, but for better people within it. – Unknown

If You Need Assistance
[edit]If there's anything you'd like my assistance with, please leave it in my talk page, truly I'd love to help with anything that sparks your interest, so long as you can provide me with some beginners resources to start with. If you're a new user, don't worry about making the referencing perfect in source editor. My advice would be to use your own user page to craft an automatic or manual reference, then copy paste the information it generates for it in source editor into the talk page editing interface. Remember that it has to be within the <ref>PUT YOUR CITATION HERE</ref> box, no spaces.
Notes
[edit]Feb ? 2025
[edit]Hi all. Will only be making minor edits on occasion. Mostly to citations and grammar. Can assist in French and English editing, and would be interested in anyone hoping to expand the Swahili article base, as I'm currently at intermediate level and hoping to improve. Will mostly focus on articles related to history, theology, geography, demography, economics, politics, or current events. Thanks to everyone who's devoted their time to this project, its kept me curious and made my life far easier on a number of occasions.

[edit]To any admin that come along and view this page, likely after reversing one of my edits. Please help me. I have no idea how to use templates or transplant images from the original text to the translation. Nothing stays the same between language pages. I have no idea how to add references before publishing or creating a draft for the community at large. I am very confused and would greatly appreciate any help you could provide in understanding the many moving systems of this website. Believe me, I understand that the complexity of this site is one of its greatest strengths, but it might serve as a barrier to integrating new users into the more complex elements of Wikipedia. My thanks in advance, and best wishes to all amid a deeply challenging, painful, and nonetheless critical moment in the history of our species.
4/19/25
[edit]If there's anyone who's also on French language wikipedia, I'd appreciate them looking over several draft articles I've completed. The first article I translated was flagged for poor language, and I'd like to make sure that this one, of far greater length, is up to standard. Also noting that the draft article system desperately needs to be revamped. Templates as well. I'll make a note of changes I feel are most pertinent below. I doubt anyone will read it, but if they do, please take these points into consideration.
4/27/25
[edit]Though I'm not certain I'd be much help in teaching people about the mechanisms of this website, I've read a ton of sources over the course of my life, and will soon start categorizing them to make them available to those who are interested in researching or learning about a given topic, with some steps on how to properly contextualize what you'll see in sourcing and potentially in Wikipedia's projects. For the moment, I've compiled some of the books I've enjoyed / gotten the most out of thus far in life. This is not an endorsement of the views expressed in these books, simply a recognition that they provide a thought provoking view on the world or the people within it. I'll add more as time goes on, I remember the things I've read, or I finally go back and look through my library. I recommend that you only read the first paragraph or so of the linked articles. Don't spoil the endings, the context can wait, enjoy the content.
Logs
[edit]This isn't computer code, it's a shorthand logging system I'm working on. It's kept on the page for reference. Sorry if it ends up taking up a lot of space. I'll try to add a draft space at some point.
Only relevant info that would make sense for record keeping purposes is W=Wiki edits, A= Articles (major (not by wiki definition) edits only), Dis=Talk page, C=characters (1,000), min=minimum
2025-06-08: H= MD / W = 1A + 5Cmin (Wu=1.5pm) / F = ---X / H = ---X / Ev. = L.A., EM-DT, Ga, Uk

Non-Fiction Recommendations (15+) (Main Focus - Human Geography / Sociology / Theology)
[edit]For anyone who comes along who is under the age of 16, I'd caution you that some of the topics discussed in these books can be quite upsetting and difficult to process and properly contextualize without the guidance or support of an adult. It is no less important that you learn about them, but I recommend taking it gradually alongside discussion with a parent or teacher. It's important to understand that these works raise questions that humans have grappled with for millennia. You are shared by billions in that struggle, and having care for those who were forced to suffer during their lifetimes, and more importantly those who still are, shows your capacity to love beyond yourself and that which pertains to yourself, which is an immeasurably important aspect of character to possess. No one person is expected to fix the world or the people in it on their own.
For teachers that view this page, I'm leaving a few resources at the bottom with recommendations for history / science books that your students might find engaging. They're a tad bit outdated, though for discussions of general history I suppose that doesn't really matter within a span of 20 years or so. Let me know if there are any others you've found helpful and I'll leave them below. Sharing these resources and providing students access to resources that truly interest them and immerse them in the material is how we ensure that the next generation actually moves forward, not back.

Young Adult / Pre-Teen (10-14) Education Non-Fiction Recommendations
[edit]- Ghosts in the Fog: The Untold Story of Alaska's WWII Invasion - Samantha Seiple | Read in fourth grade, probably a little dark for a 9 year old but it was nonetheless incredibly interesting / along with Dragon's Gate encouraged my love of history on through middle- and high-school
- All About Turtles - Jim Arnosky | I'll admit I used the first and like 6th chapter of this for a book report (that was, admittedly, for the whole book) in 9th grade. It was a terrible report on the book, excellent report on turtles. Earned me an A. Nonetheless it had a lot of info therein. If you find a kid who's just crazy about turtles I suspect they'll appreciate it
- Prisoners of Geography - Tim Marshall | Listing this here again because I read this in 8th grade and it changed the trajectory of my academic career. It's incredibly well written and does an excellent job of simplifying complex geopolitical concepts in a way that makes it digestible for younger or less cosmopolitan readers. It provides an excellent base understanding of how the global world order came to take the shape it did. I'd recommend for history or geography teachers looking to expose their students to a range of different topics in a relatively brief but coherent and fundamental way
Questions to ponder
[edit]- According to Newton's Laws of Thermodynamics, neither energy nor matter can be created or destroyed. How does consciousness fall into this framework? Is thought and comprehension of being spontaneously originating? Does it follow different rules, or is it only a byproduct of other processes, and thus, in either case, not conform to these Laws? That would mean that it is finite and mutable, that we are limited in our capacity to change. Yet everything about human thought seems to stand in contradiction to that. We do change, we do learn to be better. We choose, at every stage, how we will proceed. We are never fixed in our decisions. We hold memory over generations, and yet learn to fight it to face our circumstances and produce something better, not only for ourselves, but for those who come after us. Both matter and energy change form, shift both in ways that we understand and simultaneously in ways that are entirely incomprehensible to us. An apple that falls from the tree and goes uneaten doesn't simply disappear. It reenters the system as a contingent of the larger whole. Nothing is lost, nothing is fundamentally changed. It is still matter, it is still of a certain form, just a differentiation of it. The system continues, and, as time goes, another apple forms, perhaps, even in the same place. It isn't the same apple, but then again, neither was it the same apple when it decayed as when the pulp first formed. The skin, the seeds contained within have changed, yet never did that first apple disappear from the arrangement. If the tree is lucky, that apple will go on to plant roots somewhere else. If nothing else, it returns to the system, and renews it in turn. What, if anything, might this say about ourselves? - 8 June 2025

- If a tree falls in the forest, something always records its fall. It may not be heard, but we know that it's changed. We see that tree as inhabiting a different state than a tree that's upright. It may die, it may live, either way, we consider it changed in some way. Arguably, it has changed. The ground around it is uprooted. The roots themselves are exposed. The dark, saturated earth beneath is seeing the sun for its first time in decades. Unfortunate plants and creatures may have been crushed in its path. Regardless, if it lives, the tree hasn't changed in any way that's really all that more meaningful than the slow, steady growth of its roots, leaves, and branches. Certainly its a more jarring transition, but who's to say it doesn't nonetheless accomplish its ends? The question, thus, has nothing to do with whether or not a tree falls in the forest. It's this one: Why do we know it fell?
Issues I've Noticed (Admin please read)
[edit]- Incredibly esoteric editing interface
- Explanations of key concepts on instructional pages which are deeply complicated, or lacking in necessary context, or lacking in basic context, or any combination thereof.
- Lack of template parity between different wikipedia language projects
- If auto licensing exists, why doesn't it between en.wikipedia and wikipedia.fr.
- Why can images not be attributed to the user of origin across sites
- Could an integrated system not exist to edit template headers while working on translating pages which would necessarily need a version of that template. It's not surprising that a fair number of non-English wikipedia or wikimedia project pages of only reasonable importance or renown lack the characteristic templates that you'd see on the English language version.
- Lack of template parity between different wikimedia projects, especially wiktionary.org.
- The overwhelming lack of non-english translations between other languages speaks to how imposing the structure of the English language page is.
- The lack of standardization, or, at the very least, proper marking of templates between languages makes new page creation nearly impossible.
- Difficulty supporting multiple editors amid breaking news
- A tendency among editors to simply remove content that they feel is problematic in the interest of reducing the rate at which that information is viewed, but simultaneously wiping referencing for such content that is nonetheless relevant to the topic at hand and may be pertinent later on, though we simply don't know right at this moment. If not open to the public, there should at the very least be some repository of citations that exists for editors to work through when making additions to various pages as major events surface.
- An additional tendency among such editors to blanket wipe entire sections of text which are appropriate and relevant to the topic at hand. Frankly I think that some of the definitions of original research for the site are absurd.
- Despite it being marked as a page of 'top importance', The History of Zambia has not seen a single admin come along to verify edits or sourcing in months. I think this speaks to a larger issue I've seen with many pages where, despite the willingness of some editors to mark pages for deletion on account of notability, there is little effort to ensure that rigorous standards are met for the pages we deem the most important.
- If you choose to be an admin, or are chosen to be one, I'd suggest you make an effort to pay an equal amount of attention to the interests of users as to the interests of arbitrary guidelines which can necessarily be changed at any time by verdict of the administrative body. This is especially true of users who focus on removal edits. What conveniently took you 1 and a half minutes because of the reasonable openness to interpretation of most guidelines (combined with your place in a meritocracy that is based on an amassment of edits that don't necessarily represent the actual time you've invested into the project, which earns you points with other editors in debate) could have taken someone else several hours, if not days. If you are here not to be constructive, but rather to claim you're being constructive by rigidly applying your interpretation of site policy while turning the vast majority of new users off from engaging with the project, I don't see any reason why you should be here at all.
19 April - Updated 27 April
To note, the criticism I've voiced thus far about this system is in no way meant to deride those that created or maintain it. What's been performed here, largely at the hands of volunteers, is an incredible act of service in the interests of equal access to education and Learning for All, and its stringency and rigorous standards have helped solidify this site's reputation. Nevertheless, the rate at which information is being produced globally has accelerated at such a rapid pace that this site can no longer rely on the dutiful maintenance of a small group of core editors and bots. Wikipedia seems to have gone quiet at the moment its needed most, at a moment when knowledge and the right of all to share and learn from it is under attack. We cannot allow Wikipedia to fall into decay at a time when an increasingly significant portion of official and journalistic reporting is sourced directly from it. Students rely on it as one of a scarce number of alternatives to AI simplification, and large language models like ChatGPT (for students that choose the simpler route) rely on it, for broader explanation as well as sourcing, when alternative sourcing is paywalled or does not exist.
We have lost untold sums of our history to a narrow-minded view of the world that considers profit and personal advancement as the only real and valuable facets of human experience. Encroachments on the rights, privileges, and funding of public media (PBS, NPR, VOA), Hachette v. Internet Archive, and other attacks are proof that our institutions are not, nor have ever been safe from the apathy of a compromised government authority that was assumed to always work to their interest. We cannot allow our own apathy to erase the progress that was made through the sacrifice of every previous generation, less than a tenth of whom we remember in any meaningful way, to ensure that the lives of those who came after them would be better. Who are you to wipe their faces from the history books for a lack of notability or perfectly technically appropriate sourcing? How many real and important stories or truths of the recent past are no longer known because the first or only time someone took time out of their day to write them down, you decided you needed a technical win?
I would like to be remembered when I die. I want my family to be remembered when they die. I want all those I loved and all those I didn't to be remembered, to serve as an example and guide to those who came after them. I want to show people that there is beauty and meaning that exists in the world and their lives, even when all it offers them is pain. This life is short, asks so much and yet only occasionally offers us something concrete and knowable in return. The only solution, then, is to find comfort in the abstract, the absurd, in the beautiful eccentricities of the exceptionally mundane.
Life is most livable when we laugh in the face of the horror and love and care in the face of everything that tells us that anger, derision, and cynicism are the only way. You teach yourself to learn from your mistakes not because it stops you from making them, but because it shows you the value and meaning inherent to the moments when you were wrong, and how much brighter the future might be if you choose to care. Caring forces you to look back on the truth of your experience and ask if that was really the best you had to offer to the world, or even yourself. The only thing shared by all life as we know it is our experience. When that's gone, the only thing left is what, of that experience, we've left for others.
I question God and the idea that there's anything that exists past death, but I am desperate for some assurance that the lives of pain led by so many souls weren't the only due paid to them by the universe. If it is the case, though, that this is the only life we get to lead, I'd hope that we'd choose the right path. Not one where we cynically swallow up the bounty of the earth in a nihilistic fervor, nor one where we allow our own fear and forlornness at our fate to exempt existence from its right to future generations who might be capable of attaining balance and harmony with our place in the universe. Its a middle path, a point where we choose to acknowledge our fallibility and the ultimate lack of meaning inherent to our existence while recognizing that there is nonetheless reason to care. It's difficult to imagine, believe me I know, but doesn't it sound like a better option than the one we've given ourselves? It would be hard to obtain surely, but wouldn't it be beautiful nonetheless?
- All my best, CSGinger14
Publishing companies that are particularly egregious
[edit]Am making a list of these to recommend to anyone writing a book or performing larger referencing purchases for Wikipedia, book companies that they might want to avoid if they're concerned about academic accessibility. Works published by these companies have been unnecessarily restricted from research databases that provide access to educational and philanthropic institutions.

Contributions (Please notify me before removing major edits)
[edit]Major contributions to pages as of April 2025 (Reads Bottom to Top). Personal contributions over 1,000 characters marked by *, over 2,000 by **, over 10,000 by ***, over 20,000 by ^:
Added = 95% - all of the additions my own

Note*: Do not take this as gospel, the three bold sentences above are an effort to clarify the nature of my edits. Check the history of edits before assuming attributions. Additionally, this is a rough wager based on my memory, it is not verified accurate until I mark it so. For anyone for whom this is needed, this is not WP:OWN. Please do not think this is WP:OWN. If you assume nonetheless that it is WP:OWN, it is because you have not looked closely enough into the other commentary made available on this user page that would explain how and why it is not WP:OWN. I am just trying to facilitate communication between editors to ensure that pages are kept accurate and reliable. The point is, if you make this information available, it makes it easier for someone who wishes to add commentary on similar or additional issues to request it be done, or request commentary on pages they've created or edits they've performed of similar scholarship/specialty.
