User:Leucosticte

Hello, I am Leucosticte. I began editing Wikipedia on 15 November 2004. Then I stopped. For various reasons, I tend to hang out on Quora more these days.

Since 22 May 2014, I've been about 99% retired from the wikisphere, having almost completely given up on my primary mission, viz. attract an Inclupedia co-entrepreneur and collaborate to establish a hyper-inclusionist general-purpose collaborative resource that is a combination mirror and supplement of Wikipedia; and my secondary mission, viz. influence the world in a libertarian direction by other means. From now on, I am mostly resigned to working menial retail jobs, doing a few household chores, and possibly helping my wife raise a family. I will still appeal to the English Wikipedia Arbitration Committee every six months for an unban, unless and until I am unbanned.
