The metaphysical principle of editing is embodied in a law of attraction. You edit what you think about.

You want this, don't you? The desire to edit is swelling in you now. Take your keyboard. Use it. Edit this article with it. Give in to your desire to edit. With each passing moment you make yourself more my servant.

Your edits are unavoidable. Your edits are your destiny. You, like your father, are now mine.

Some style suggestions

  • Bold the article title the first time it appears by surrounding it in [[brackets like a link]].
  • Bold other things using '''triple-ticks'''
  • Give every article at least one category
  • Give every article at least one out-link
  • If you are making a comment, such as in a talk page, use four tildes (~~~~) to insert your username and a timestamp.
  • Mark short articles as stubs using {{stub}}
