== Jersey Devil (user) ==
Had to update this part at least. I've been here for a while now (since May '05 I think) and I'm starting to get better at this thing. There are somethings I do dislike about Misplaced Pages and Misplaced Pages users though. They are the following:
*Many of the people who vandalize are IP's. '''There should be a rule where you have to register to edit an article.''' I see no argument in favor of keeping IPs editting.
*People do not often enough put aside their political beliefs in order to make a good accurate article.
*Often you see articles that are unsourced, that really pisses me off.
*Some articles are sourced with links to geocities.com, a random blog, extremely partisan sources, etc... These are not good sources and should not be used.
*Do not make articles just so they can be made and leave them there as stubs.


Hello I'm '''Jersey Devil''' and I am a user on the English Misplaced Pages. My editing interests include a wide-range of issues but I typically like to work on Peru and Latin America related articles as well as articles about domestic political affairs, independent and public media, and my home state of New Jersey. I am a member of several Wikiprojects but the main one I focus on is ]. If you need any help with anything on Misplaced Pages feel free to ask me.
If your interested in politics the fuck off.

===What I do on Misplaced Pages===
*
I devote much of my time on Misplaced Pages editting Communist-related (and Latin America-related) articles, usually regarding contemporary political issues and history of the country/region. In addition to this you can find me adding to articles about political media publications and broadcasters (many time just adding infoboxes and images of frontpages to magazines, newspapers, academic journals, etc...) and of course New Jersey government articles. I also try to keep my eyes on the look out for POV hawks and quickly revert POV edits. In between these activities I spend some time on afd's removing material not notable enough to be on Misplaced Pages. I currently have over 1,500 edits on Misplaced Pages.

Picture of the day Colias croceus Colias croceus, also known as the clouded yellow, is a small butterfly of the family Pieridae, the yellows and whites. Its breeding range is North Africa and southern Europe and eastwards through Turkey into the Middle East, but it occurs throughout much of Europe as a summer migrant, sometimes as far north as Scandinavia. In Asia, its range extends into central Siberia in the north and barely into India in the south, although it is not found in Central Asia. The species can live in any open area in the countryside, including downland, coastal cliffs and fields containing the caterpillar's host plants, at an elevation up to 1,600 metres (5,200 ft) above sea level. Colias croceus has a wingspan of 46–54 millimetres (1.8–2.1 in), with the upperside of its wing being golden to orange yellow with a broad black margin on all four wings and a black spot near the centre forewing. This mating pair was photographed in Pirin National Park, Bulgaria.Photograph credit: Charles J. Sharp Archive – More featured pictures...

Quotes

"The charter of this tribunal gives warning for the future, I say, and repeat again, gives warning for the future, to the dictators and tyrants masquerading as a state, that if...they debate the sanctity of man in their own countries, they act at their peril, for they affront the international law of mankind."--Sir Hartley Shawcross, Britain's Chief Prosecutor at Nuremberg, 1945.

"What are the common wages of labour, depends every where upon the contract usually made between those two parties, whose interests are by no means the same. The workmen desire to get as much, the masters to give as little as possible. The former are disposed to combine in order to raise, the latter in order to lower the wages of labour.

It is not, however, difficult to foresee which of the two parties must, upon all ordinary occasions, have the advantage in the dispute, and force the other into a compliance with their terms. The masters, being fewer in number, can combine much more easily; and the law, besides, authorises, or at least does not prohibit their combinations, while it prohibits those of the workmen."-Adam Smith Book I Chapter VII "Wages of Labour" p.67 The Wealth of Nations

"God made the integers; all else is the work of man."-Leopold Kronecker

"There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again."--President George W. Bush, 2002

"And you'll ask: why doesn't his poetry
speak of dreams and leaves
and the great volcanoes of his native land?
Come and see the blood in the streets.
Come and see
The blood in the streets.
Come and see the blood
In the streets!"--Pablo Neruda Last lines of "I'm Explaining a Few Things"

"I'm a head of state, I'm a diplomat, I'm not a criminal or a terrorist...I know who is behind this, that Communist Garces."--Augusto Pinochet Upon being arrested in London refering to Joan Garces Chilean-Spanish attorney and former advisor to Salvador Allende.

"Nobody has ever seen Big Brother. He is a face on the hoardings, a voice on the telescreen… Big Brother is the guise in which the Party chooses to exhibit itself to the world. His function is to act as a focusing point for love, fear, and reverence, emotions which are more easily felt towards an individual than towards an organization."-Goldstein's book from George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four

"The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed."-Steve Biko

"Now I feel I am able to say what I couldn't then. At the time I called it "the hand of God". Bollocks was it the hand of God, it was the hand of Diego! And it felt a little bit like pickpocketing the English."-Diego Maradona on the Hand of God goal
