This page is about a silly Wikipedian. For the computer science-related term, see Signed integer.
Some of the contents of this user page are not meant to be taken seriously, but I'm sure you already knew that.
SignedInteger is currently experiencing depression, which may affect their Wikipedia editing in various ways. They may have difficulty with:
altered perception when making editorial judgements, determining consensus, or reading Wikipedia discussions addressed to them;
reduced availability on Wikipedia during times when they experience issues;
limited capacity to respond to other Wikipedians via talk page or email messages in a timely fashion, to participate in conflict resolution, or to complete their usual workload of Wikipedia tasks.
Thank you for your understanding.
This user tries to do the right thing. If they make a mistake, please let them know.
My edits and the articles that I make tend to focus on Israeli culture-related things, with only a few exceptions.
With the articles that I make, I try to find sources for them first and then finish them up later. There was an essay that influenced me to adopt this style, but I can't seem to find it. It goes from a rough userspace draft featuring the most basic details, then source-searching, then completing everything else.
My tone in discussions is usually formal; I tend to use a more informal tone on Discord (No, I am not in the Wikimedia server…yet). I do like making good-hearted jokes in discussions on occasion, though.
You can also contact me via email; I tend to respond there faster than on the talk page, but that is a last resort. There's also my Discord account, but I recommend against contacting me through there for any queries; you should only contact me there if it's for something else.
A signed integer is a nerdy thing that is a fitting username for a nerd like me. (The irony is that I'm not at all adept at coding; I only use source editor on pages where it is the only option, which can cause issues, so I apologise in advance)
As for my signature, it is not a typo; those are just my actual name's initials.
I love music, especially Israeli music, but I'm not a musicologist, if you want to read the works of musicologists on this subject matter, see Dudi Patimer, Ofer Gavish, and Dan Almagor.
I won't give any other info here; my userboxes also help in giving info about me, although it is still a relatively small amount, and that's on purpose. I am currently a mentor for new users, I am also currently a probationary AfC reviewer, hopefully in a few months that'll change to permanent. I am also a frequent editor at the Teahouse, and I've answered several questions there to help others. I'll also be doing this on the Help desk. I really like helping other Wikipedians out in any way I can. Feel free to leave suggestions for other ways I can do so on my talk page.
Obviously, I can, will, and have made mistakes. While I have a lot of knowledge about how Wikipedia works, I'm still prone to poor assumptions. If I slip up badly, or I am just acting like an idiot or a jerk, then whack me with a wet trout!
I won't give any other info here except for this section.
I have depression, I've had it for years without diagnosis but recently I got diagnosed with it. Please if you see me acting up, or just being down, tell me to take a break. I'm too addicted to editing here, and as much as I like it as a hobby, it is probably not the best way to cope. I hate to make this section, but I'd also rather not hide this from editors who might genuinely care about me. Thank you for reading.
The Sixteenth Sheep, this was an article I had a lot of fun making, too! Even made a little parody of one of the songs from there in my head. (See status on the user infobox for a snippet.) Fun fact! Not only is this the very first article I've made to reach GA status, it is the very first article about an Israeli album to reach this status as well! A unique status to have for a unique and sweet album.
Waiting for the Messiah, honestly this was not an article I had that much fun making. Sources kept failing on me, and I didn't really like what the final result was, sadly.
Poozy, very proud of this one! First in a long line of articles that I'm working on related to Arik Einstein albums.
Oshik Levi, from stub class to start class, this is an article that I found to be not only short but also badly written, formatted, and sourced, so I heavily expanded it to help improve it to at least a start class. This is the first existing article that I've expanded upon in such a way.
HaTarnegolim, this is a relatively new article, and it is still unfinished at the moment, but I am working on finding more sources for it to expand it further. (Shout out to Altenmann for making the article; he also rated it as a start-class article, but I'm sure this has potential to be a C-Class if given time).
Blaumilch Canal, this was already a start class, but I don't think it needs reassessment yet. Once I make other sections more in-depth and broader (using the sources I have anyway), I think this is a solid C-Class article, or at least could be one.
The High Windows, from start class to B class, it might be ready for a GAN too, but I'll be patient on that end.
This is only for the most pressing matters; everything else is documented here. Oh, and it goes without saying that if you want to help out with this to-do list, please do!
Articles on Hebrew Wikipedia that could merit inclusion on English Wikipedia
All of these were commando units active through the Six-Day War and the Yom Kippur War. I think these could merit existing on English Wikipedia, but they require English-language sources.
The title is misleading as all hell (there was no such front; a more fitting title would be "Jordan in the Yom Kippur War"), but this one is backed up with three Hebrew-language sources. I still think we need English-language sources for this one. I did check to see if anything there was mentioned elsewhere, and I could not find anything.
That one could use improvements based on the new articles I've made about the other military ensembles; it is the only one that I think is pressing enough to be included here.
In an ideal world, this would be a GA or even an FA. It goes without saying that Dayan is a high-profile figure and that the article about him is equally as high-profile. I mean, it's linked in the national founders list section on Israel. Other articles listed there that could use improvement include:
Obviously, all of these, except perhaps Ben-Yehuda, have the issue of being about very contentious people and subject matters, but that hasn't prevented Palestine (region) from being a GA! The more GA-level articles, the better.
This user has natural short sleep, a rare genetic condition that allows them to rely on less sleep than usual. This may cause them to be active during unusual times of the day or for long periods of time.
