About Me

edit
Committed identity: cefd168e1eaa40325cd708e4e10d1389f61dc2e5c97f1adb7693dc65eafa78fc82f6ebb5afe9cd2fbc54abb8ba1a8c2b8925f10fb6865c116db5c97ff48eafda is a SHA-512 commitment to this user's real-life identity.

I am an avid fan of Wikipedia and the opportunities made available for which words cannot describe and this was made possible by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger - take a bow gentlemen.Because of the authenticity of the articles presented, I always made time to visit this site.

In the middle of 2007, I seriously began to surf Wikipedia on a full time basis - more or less, and began to do minor edits, on an anonymous basis during 2008. In the period of 2010, I registered with Wikipedia under a separate user name. From the period of 2011, I registered with Wikipedia under the purview of MediaJet - my current user name which is the same today and perhaps forever.

Given my exhaustive study schedule and long travel hours, I find time to contribute to Wikipedia to the very best of my abilities. I do minor edits where possible and larger edits as and when time permits. No matter how tired I am I enjoy immensely doing this because Wikipedia has helped me a long way in my studies. This is my way of putting something back into the society I live in. I do not overlook Wikimedia commons and contribute to it as well - again as time does permit. In the near future, I hope to increase my contributions to other projects that come under the Wikimedia Foundation. I edit Wikipedia in keeping with my knowledge - in good faith and genuine concern, however, if and where I am incorrect (for whatever reason), please get with me on my user talk page.

In conclusion, I stress on the fact that I contribute avidly to Articles under WikiProject Sri Lanka.


How to use red links

When a link in Wikipedia leads to nowhere, it is displayed in red to alert our editors that it requires attention. A red link can mean one of two things:

  1. The link is broken and no longer leads to an article (perhaps because the underlying article was deleted). In such a case, the link needs to be removed or renamed to point to an existing article.
  2. A new article is needed. When a Wikipedian writes an article, it is common practice to linkify key topics pertinent to an understanding of the subject, even if those topics don't have an article on Wikipedia yet. This has two applications:
    1. From within an article, such a link prepares the article to be fully supported. At any time, a Wikipedian may independently write an article on the linked-to subject, and when this happens, there's already a link ready and waiting for it. The red link also gives readers the opportunity to click on it to create the needed article on the spot.
    2. In topic lists, it is useful to include every topic on the subject you can possibly find or think of. When they are turned into links, the list immediately shows where the gaps in Wikipedia's coverage for that subject are, since all of the topics missing articles will show up in red. Such lists are useful tools in developing subject areas on Wikipedia, as they show where work is needed most.
