I am currently spending down-time learning about the FIVE PILLARS of Wikipedia. For one to spend time within the pillars, one must understand what they mean, AND how the spirit of what those pillars stand for are enforced by those who would enforce them.. The fundamental principles by which Wikipedia operates are summarized in the form of five "pillars":
For a long time, I spent my free time goofing off in/on various forums as a user/contributor ~ but recently I realized that I was wasting my time in these places. At Wikipedia, one can be proud of contributing to the knowledge of others, and I do feel proud to contribute.
Contributing here can be rewarding AND a challenge of working with others. One can learn much about him/herself in the efforts of collaboration.
'I am hopeful (after putting more effort in) that I might be accepted into the ranks of trusted Janitors who do so much here. For now, I want to continue learning how to get around and also find a place that I can be of help. My interests are pretty diverse, so settling in to one thing might be a little tough..

Too much or Clueless? Like most folks, it's somewhere in-between, but..
I've spent countless hours over time researching and learning, (which I NEVER did in School!). Computers and the Internet have changed my life from the standpoint of how information is transmitted to the world. Just 20 years ago, an individual would have go to the library to research a subject of interest, and would HAVE to trust their doctor or lawyer (for example) due to limited resources. Now there is no reason for an individual to be at an informational disadvantage ~ and being one's own advocate is a matter of choice as opposed to a matter of "fact"! The Internet, Wikipedia and a WWW of resources have made it possible for nearly anyone to be learned and armed with knowledge. At the top of my list of interests is Health-related topics, but I'm not a doctor (some of my friends/family think so!)
I've contributed a great deal to the article "vasectomy", as my own research a few years ago when having the procedure done led me to this site, and I found it to be only moderately helpful. As well, I've found that the "readability" of these articles was not optimal, IMHO. Therefore, I've tried to reach a wider audience by making syntax adjustments, and description adjustments that would be more helpful to all who are interested in these subjects.

Thi's user know's that not every word that end's with s need's an apostrophe and will remove misused apostrophe's from Wikipedia with extreme prejudice.
