My name is Andries Krugers Dagneaux. I am from the ]. Interests are ]/cults, ], ] (esp. ]), ] (component level), ]. I am an avid but not the most accurate reader and I have to admit that my edits in Misplaced Pages have unfortunately occasionally reflected my reading habits. | |||

Strictly confing ourselves to English language sources in the English Misplaced Pages cripples it.

==Re-reading sources== | |||
In my experience, it takes a lot of effort to write a good article. Sometimes I think I can rely on my memory of books that I read a while ago but later I find out then some inaccuracies have slipped in. So I really have to re-study the subject to write a good article. | |||
