| For being a much-needed reminder that, even when discussing the most controversial of topics, and even in an environment where emotions are running high, it's still possible to have an insightful and respectful disagreement. Vanilla Wizard 💙 09:29, 21 April 2024 (UTC) |
Statistics
[edit]Non-exhaustive list of things I significantly contributed to
[edit]- Created an arguably somewhat significant article about the contemporary discussion of dietary norms
- A list of expert opinions on allegations of genocide during the Israel-Hamas war, created by another editor after a discussion about German-language legal sources
Not included: a high but unknown number of RfCs, RMs, source and BLP discussions, and any legal and I/P topic that can’t outrun me

[edit]COI disclosure
[edit]I do not and have never accepted payment for editing. Additionally, I usually do not edit pages of entities or individuals to which I have a current personally beneficial financial relationship (employment, significant share ownership) or people with whom I have a close personal relationship. I generally avoid editing pages to which those have such financial relationship as well, even if it is technically permitted to do so.
However, I edit about educational and academic institutions of which I am or have been part, and institutions that compete with them (by nature of the field), as well as people employed by either. Anyone is free to assume that I have a conflict of interest with regards to any european high school, college, university, research institution, scholarship network and anything directly or indirectly affiliated with them. This especially applies to institutions teaching law, business, politics and medicine.
While my edits are done for encyclopaedic purposes, bias which may be caused by such a potential COI is an understandable concern and may be brought up if relevant, even if a practical interpretation of the rules (alumni and students commonly edit the pages of their Alma mater or things associated with them, etc.) would not prohibit such an edit.
I have other accounts (currenntly: one) for legitimate reasons, particularly protecting my privacy.
To place where appropriate
[edit]== (Technical) COI disclosure ==
I have what a strict reading could plausibly describe as a non-financial conflict of interest in regards to this article. While I believe that my editing (both talk page and article) is not affected by it, I have voluntarily chosen to provide this disclaimer in addition to the one on my user page. ~~~~
