Hello, I'm Hex, pronouns they/them. I've been editing for 22 years (user #5413), and I've been an admin for 17. My use of the tools is largely limited to archival and history maintenance functions.

I also often edit now without bothering to log in. Try it, it's liberating - if you're lucky enough not to be in one of the vast IP ranges permanently prevented from participating in "the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit".

Anyway, after being here so long, I can tell you for sure that this isn't the paragon of universal knowledge that people make it out to be. Lmao. Not even close. There's a lot of good to be had here, but never let it slip while you read that this is a game, and everyone's trying to win somehow.

I'm on our Discord so do say hi if you are as well. For links to me on various social networks, stop by my home page.


Some good hexes:

11th of November 2022: I registered on Wikipedia twenty years ago today. This wasn't my first wiki - I'd been editing at the original WikiWikiWeb and MeatballWiki for two years already at that point. I've been involved with wikis for half of my life, and I expect that to continue for many years to come.
