The Divine Comedy: "Abandon hope, all ye who enter here"; don't expect a fair hearing, or justice if or when you err. Just give what you can, while you can. If you get shafted, go fishing, because your efforts will not be appreciated, whereas if you catch a fish, you can always eat it, and that's a result, even if it's only for today.
“
That ideas should freely spread from one to another over the globe for the moral and mutual instruction of man and improvement of his condition, seems to have been peculiarly and benevolently designed by nature when she made them like fire, expansible over all space, without lessening their density in any point, and like the air in which we breathe, move, and have our physical being, incapable of confinement or exclusive appropriation. (Thomas Jefferson, 1813)
Misplaced Pages's got everything on it, from sharks to Barbie Dolls - it may not always be accurate, but it's all there (Eddie Izzard, 2009)

"In popular culture"
Thinking of adding a section or item? Please think carefully before doing that; this is an excellent example of what we could end up with. "In popular culture" can be a lazy excuse for adding non-notabletrivia in general. Such additions at least should be sourced, and also shown to be relevant to an understanding of the topic of the article, per WP:NOT (specifically "an indiscriminate collection of information"). Too many articles tend to be dustbins for all sorts of this nonsense. An excellent example of specific advice can be found here.
About
Hi, I'm a graduate of Manchester Polytechnic & University of York who is interested in lots of things, which makes me useful for pub quizzes but not very employable. I've been editing here since 8th August 2007.
Things I have done, and do here
I practised law in Liverpool from 1974 to 1982 and qualified in 1978
I currently have been entrusted with the following privileges: autopatrolled, reviewer, rollbacker and file mover. The only things I cannot do that I used to be able to do is to block vandals and protect pages against vandalism, neither of which have much to do with the current ArbCom case against me. As a result, it seems that this encyclopedia suffers from that failure of faith.
For taking an article that could have been deleted and yet working hard to improve it instead, whilst also demonstrating good faith and civility I humbly award you this barnstar. Thank you! Pedro : Chat 19:12, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

The Original Barnstar
I just have to give you this for all of the time and effort you put into reverting the (sadly far too frequently occuring) cases of vandalism on Bono. You seem to beat me to it all the time, and it's fantastic that it vanishes almost straight after it appears. Good job, and keep it going!

At present, I believe that the article "cunt" is an acid test of what we are trying to achieve here, and if I can take that to Good Article status, I will be happy. I said this some time ago, but I hope I've managed to improve it. Meanwhile, I don't have the time to concentrate on it. There are more important concerns. One day, perhaps.
I may have heard this elsewhere, but only on watching "Heroes of Comedy: The Goons" on TV recently did I realise where it originated; however, I make no apologies for using it, because Spike Milligan almost single-handedly created modern British comedy.

But it keeps me cheerful in the face of adversity
