The flag has nothing to do with Greek or Macedonian nationalism: first created in 2008, Minoa thought that the Vergina sun was appropriate for the climate and geography that her NationStates nation is located. Furthermore, Minoa has been avoiding real world politics, due to how hateful, divisive, and depressing it has become.

Hello, my name is Minoa: on 2 March 2019, I adopted this username, because I use the name of my NationStates nation more often than the old username. I would like to thank Base for bringing the new and more relevant username into reality.

However, I chose not to abandon my old account to avoid potential complications with multiple accounts, given that Wikipedia policy says that editors are generally expected to have only one account.

Since I am fighting severe depression and doomscrolling, my editing schedule remains irregular.

Recent developments

I came out of full retirement in September 2018, to address a number of annoying issues with the detail in some articles. The main fixes included:

In addition, a major new article project for the first time in a while:

  • Conversations about Important Things: how does a country have the guts to almost tell children as young as nine that their life is worth less than their country, and that it is not scary to die for their country?

MediaWiki technical skills

I am experienced in the deployment and operation of MediaWiki projects, such as NSindex (currently paused). That does not mean that I am a total expert, since I ask for advice on enabling or disabling certain MediaWiki features from time to time.
