User:TaivoLinguist

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I used to be just "Taivo", but Wikipedia made me change it because someone on another Wikiproject was "Taivo" before I was.

This user is a member of the Ukraine WikiProject.
This user has been on Wikipedia for 19 years, 9 months and 4 days.




Warning: This editor is a specialist in a scientific field, so he often runs afoul of the "Randy in Boise" trap.

It is easy to mistake quantity for quality.

I am continually amazed by Wikipedia's unbridled ability to ignore science in favor of "common knowledge"

For tireless NPOV and courtesy on Talk:Macedonia (ancient kingdom). Richard Keatinge (talk) 17:59, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
The Socratic Barnstar
I have been following your responses in this talkpage, where you have proven to be extremely skilled and eloquent in your arguments. This one was the most striking ever: link, which embodies a classic characteristic which is very commonly seen among non-neutral editors, but is rarely described as eloquently as you did there. Please, you shouldn't be surprised if other editors (such as me) start copying your fine writing skills elsewhere to make up for their lacking skills! " SILENTRESIDENT 12:56, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
