I started editing Wikipedia in the Spring of 2006 because I thought it was a great concept, and because it appeared to be a brilliant way to record and publish information that conventional encyclopaedias and online sources omit or ignore, in particular history of the continent of Africa. I am interested in Southern Africa at the time of European colonialism and also in early Scouting, which itself began in this region.
Outside of Wikipedia, my interests are primarily in physics and in library science, the latter being the field of my masters degree and my career.
On this test I scored as Postmodernist. Postmodernism is the belief in complete open interpretation. Postmodernist's see the universe as a collection of information with varying ways of putting it together. There is no absolute truth for Postmodernists; even the most hardened facts are open to interpretation. Meaning relies on context and even the language Postmodernist's use to describe things should be subject to analysis.
