Hi, I'm Victor. I have always enjoyed reading Wikipedia articles. When I noticed Wikipedia was run by volunteers, I decided to try editing. It's not that I never saw the "Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia that anyone can edit" mantra—I just never gave it any thought. It's been said that most logged-in editors started editing as unregistered Wikipedians[1]— I'm an exception to that. In February 2022, I tried editing for the first time as an anon only to get the message that my IP address was blocked (lol). Few days after that, I created this account. I enjoy editing and I'm by no means an expert on any subject. Want to talk to me? Go to my talk page or email me.

My Alias Python Drink

[edit]

I've always loved computers. In early 2019, I developed an interesting in computer programming.

It wasn't until 2021 though that I decided to create a funny kind-of-stupid alias for myself that would allude to this. Python Drink is a reference to the Python programming language and an allusion to my love for computer programming.

Formerly, I used the username Victor obini which is actually my real name. On June 9, 2022, my username change request from Victor obini to Python Drink was approved.

What I do on Wikipedia

[edit]

I primarily make copy edits. Usually I search for articles centered around my interests (see infobox) daily to make copy edits. Full list below:

  • Copy edits
    • Correcting spelling, grammar, tense, etc
    • Fixing tone, for example, by removing vague words
    • Rewording sentences to make them easier to read
  • Adding references/citations if I can when I see unsourced content
  • Adding templates such as {{Citation needed}}, {{Clarify}}, etc, when appropriate
  • Wikilinking

Tip of the day

[edit]
Upgrade Recent Changes in my preferences

Have you tried the Advanced options in your Recent changes user preferences settings? It requires a modern browser to work and is disabled by default.

Unlike the normal "recent changes" page, these options can summarize edits to the same page and let you dynamically expand and collapse the list items. For multiple edits to the same page, it also provides a single "changes" link which will show you a view of the differences (diffs) between these combined edits and the last non-recent revision.

After changing the Advanced options, the "Recent changes" list takes effect immediately and can be reversed by unchecking any option.
