Some explanation on why I may consider ending my WP career

You might have noticed why I placed {{Considering retirement}} on my user page. Video games (especially Minecraft) and coding have been taking up a lot of my time in my life, and I may not have enough time to contribute hundreds of edits a day as I used to (it happens sometimes). As time progresses, grades become more important and are a factor in seeing if I can get into university. Therefore, I have to spend more time doing assignments and studying for tests and eventually, exams. WP used to be addicting last summer/autumn until video games became more addicting to me than WP. As a result, the number of edits I've made have decreased from my peak. In other words, I'm slowly losing interest in editing WP. I have finished my first year of secondary school. I'm doing very well there and should expect to get to university at this rate, and I want to stay that way. That said, being on WP during class may deter my goal of getting to university, and my school may ban the use of WP when I am in grade 11/12 so I may not edit much there. I may use WP during class time when I have free time. There is also some IRL stuff I have to do as an adolescent as I prepare for adulthood. I have to do chores for my parents, know how to do adult stuff, etc. I plan to become a computer programmer after I finish post-secondary school. In short, editing as an adolescent (especially in school) is not easy. Most important task(s) to do before ending my career here: Finish task 2 of lint fixing (approximate time: ~1 month)

Task 2 update

I'm hoping to get task 2 done by the end of April this year. Hopefully when I have more time I'll finish off it. Sheep (talk • he/him) 14:36, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

This is a note to encourage you to do this task 2. It appears that there are something like 11,000 pages just in User Talk, each with seven or more Linter errors. Fixing them would make a nice dent in our three million remaining errors and save human editors a lot of tedious editing. Go bot go! – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:18, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
