"For the errors ... that haunt large undertakings of this kind, I would like to blame them on someone or something else ..."
- John R. Colombo, 1976
"I like to think (and the sooner the better!) of a cybernetic meadow
where mammals and computers
live together in mutually
programming harmony
like pure water
touching clear sky."
- Richard Brautigan, "All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace", 1967
About me
[edit]My name is Patrick Earley. I'm a British Columbian, from the Interior of the province (hence the username). I mostly edit topics related to Canada, but will branch out on occasion to anything that catches my attention. There are many aspects of Wikipedia that interest me; I've been involved with The Wikipedia Library and the WikiEdu Foundation. For ten years, I worked on community health issues as part of the Trust & Safety team at the Wikimedia Foundation.
