I am a Finnish guy living in Kanta-Häme region, Finland. I am interested in military and firearms. As a Finnish national I have served in the Finnish Army, I occasionally participate in voluntary reservist training, and am currently a volunteer member of the Territorial forces.
My contributions
[edit]Sometimes I may add some information regarding topics that I'm interested in based solely on my own experiences. As this seems to constitute an original research, I am aware of the possibility that the stuff I add might be erased because of the lack of verifiable sources, however I hope that at least some of the information I have added can be verified by some source(s) that were unknown to me when I added the information.
I'll admit it, I am a lazy **stard, but I strongily believe that any source that is not freely & legally available over the Internet is not a verifiable source, and as such I don't usually bother adding those even if I happen to know any, including but not limited to books and TV -documentaries etc. This, however, does not mean that if someone provides an Internet source for a statement that contradicts my personal experiences that I would automatically consider it more reliable than my personal experiences.
Also, note that I sometimes bring material from the Finnish Wikipedia to the English Wikipedia, and that when I start a new article, I write a short entry, save, and go seeking for more material. This is due to the fact that I believe that Murphy is ALWAYS right, and because of that I take no chances of my computer crashing and/or my connection dying for 30+ hours while I am writing a long entry. You can see on my talk page how well this has worked in the past, and that's exactly why this paragraph is here.
Also note that, due to some of my edits being rejected because of not immediately citing sources I consider this to be norm, considering no-one has had problem with this until I have (more or less-) intentionally provoked a response from a moderator, I may expect everyone else to also provide sources supporting their edits ASAP, though I'd like to think that I am more forgiving than some people have been to me (this includes at least one moderator.)
