This user is currently suffering from Wikipediholism and is taking an off-and-on wikibreak due to bouts of addiction and fatigue. They will return when their wikistress has dissipated, and their addiction is lessened, hopefully.

Hi there! My username here is Rosalina2427. I went on Wikipedia for the first time around 2008, but I didn't become a registered user until 2010. In the beginning of my Wikipedia life, I went around hurricane talk pages, constantly forgetting the fact that Wikipedia is not a forum. I was also young, inexperienced, and absolutely naive about Wikipedia itself as an exceptionally annoying WikiKitten. After being warned a few times by more experienced (and extremely exasperated) users, I found my footing and became, well, more experienced and mature on Wikipedia.

Nowadays, I go around undoing vandalism, copyediting, updating tropical cyclone information, and checking out the Teahouse at times when I can squeeze it in to help and guide new users who are just like me back in the day.

Picture of the day

Long Tack Sam (1884–1961) was a Chinese-born American magician, acrobat, and vaudeville performer. Little is known about his early years, although he is known to have joined a group of acrobats around 1900 called the Tian-Kwai, with whom he toured the world. Several years later, amid unrest in China, he brought his troupe of entertainers to the United States, where he performed extensively for several decades. This colour lithograph poster featuring Long was printed in Hamburg, Germany, in 1919. It illustrates his conscious use of luxurious embroidered costumes and elaborate scenery to enhance his mystique and capitalize on Western notions of "the mysterious Orient".Poster credit: Studio of Adolph Friedlander; restored by Adam Cuerden
