From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi!

I am a middle aged, married with kids, American!

I found Wikipedia by accident on the internet while doing a google search a couple of years ago. I didn't stick around very long at that time.

Then, a couple of months ago, I was looking for an article on The Urantia Book and found one here - in Wikipedia. I had not perused this site since the first time and became more impressed as I continued to read and learn about it.

I've been helping with the article about The Urantia Book (TUB) ever since and have come to enjoy the many ways in which one can use Wikipedia. I've made a few small edits here and there throughout the various links which stemmed from TUB, but I've made my share of mistakes and fixes while doing it! I try to stick to the article for now, but will be happy to try to help if something catches my eye.

I have discovered that a lot of people writing articles have very set notions and opinions. Writers sometimes seem to "own" their articles and sometimes have a difficult time accepting changes in them. But as Wikipedia would have us do, I believe in fairness, objectivity, and NPOV without bias. Though achieving that is not always easy it is a great exercise in learning how to get along and accomplish a good article.

I speak English as a first language and a tiny bit of Spanish which is nothing to brag about. As I learn some of the templates, I plan to improve this page, but the article takes more of my time.

If you want to contact me please use my "talk" page.

Welcome!
