What Wikipedia is (in my opinion)

Avoiding any obvious details, (website, encyclopedia, a wiki, ect.), I will tell you what I think Wikipedia is. Wikipedia is a place where people of all ages can both learn and help others learn, enjoy themselves in a healthy manner, and become severely addicted to something good. It can also be said that Wikipedia is constantly evolving, (due, in part, to the large numbers of addicted Users), it's knowledge base multiplying almost daily, so that never will a person get bored. In other words, thanks Mr.Wales!

Babel

Those are the languages I speak, or, in the case of German and Latin, am learning to speak. (I'm learning Latin very slowly; though I can comprehend almost anything, I would not be able to answer should I be asked a question).

My Userboxes

This section is devoted to presenting you with a large quantity of userboxes, most in user subpages, and with having them as organised as possible. Userboxes I have created, (the few, the proud), will say so, and will appear in a special subpage as well as in their respective category. I also have, immediatly below, the number of userboxes per subpage. Userboxes are meant to be ways of saying something without actually writing it. In this frame of mind, here I shall say, but shall not write (much).
