A Shirt58, yesterday "The superfluous, that very necessary thing..." - Voltaire

Hi, I'm Peter aka Shirt58. My username comes from the field hockey shirt I was allocated some while ago. Yes, men do play field hockey. And Tasmania is not a fictional place.

This is not the Australia men's national field hockey team at the 2004 Summer Olympics.

The Australia men's national field hockey team has a long tradition of being the the best in the world and then somehow managing not to win the Olympic gold medal, with one exception.

I have very strong opinions about almost everything. My views are unconventional, iconoclastic and coruscatingly pragmatic. You will find nothing of the sort in my contributions to the Wikipedia project.

This user page has been vandalized , apparently, but I am far too scatter-brained to have even noticed, let alone count how many times.


Brief Q&A

edit

Q: Shirt58, are you as easy-going, helpful, ridiculously erudite, and concise in real life as you appear to be from your contributions?
A: Yes, that is correct.

My editing philosophy

edit
  • Be concise and use good references.
 This user has written or expanded 14 articles featured in the Did You Know section on the Main Page.
  • I've recently tried to bump up my contributions to at least 50% article-space edits. As of 27 February 2014 my "edit count pie" looked like this. As of 1 November 2014 my "edit count pie" looked like... erm, a SVG image with XML markup I couldn't even begin to understand, but it's 53.3%.
 
The overdue star-mesh-transforming star (or something) for regularly transforming the fruits of ref-desk research to article space! (✿◠‿◠) ---Sluzzelin talk 22:17, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Melbourne

  • So Pete, where in Australia are you from?
  • I'm from Melbourne.
  • Melbourne? Where's that?
  • (sighs) It's about 800 kilometres south-west of Sydney
  • Oh, Sydney. Yeah, I know where Sydney is.

I guess people most probably don't also want to read about the shapes I hear consonants as
