Hi, I'm Max. I primarily make small corrections and tie up loose ends, verify sources, make graphics, and occasionally write or overhaul an article. I am a full-time student and also have a job, so I edit Wikipedia in the free time I am able to find.

About Me

Hi! I'm Max. I have formal training in computer science (relevant to Wikipedia) and mechanical engineering (less relevant to Wikipedia), but I also have experience with electronics, graphic and video editing software, CAD, and machining (CNC and otherwise).

Roles on Wikipedia

• I like to expand and improve articles on topics I am interested in, or catch my attention for a few hours.
• I often make small grammar, spelling, or formatting edits.
• I create diagrams, vectorize raster images, and am active on the Wikipedia Graphics Lab.
• I am passionate about fighting commercial disinformation campaigns against Wikipedia, and thus am active on the Conflict of interest Noticeboard.

Wikipedia Beliefs

This user is a member of the Association of Inclusionist Wikipedians. The motto of the AIW is conservata veritate, which translates to "with the preserved truth". This motto reflects the inclusionist desire to change Wikipedia only when no knowledge would be lost as a result.

I am a steadfast inclusionist. History has historically been written by the oppressors, and Wikipedia provides us with a unique opportunity to break that cycle. Wikipedia's search engine is fantastic, and finding what you're looking for is a non-issue. Disambiguation pages work. When in doubt, Keep.
