User:Rosalina2427

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

Shirley Graham Du Bois (November 11, 1896 – March 27, 1977) was an American-Ghanaian writer, playwright, composer, and activist for African-American causes. Born in Indianapolis to an Episcopal minister, she moved with her family throughout the United States as a child. After marrying her first husband, she moved to Paris to study music at the Sorbonne. After her divorce and return to the United States, Graham Du Bois took positions at Howard University and Morgan College before completing her BA and master's at Oberlin College in Ohio. Her first major work was the opera Tom-Tom, which premiered in Cleveland in 1932. She married W. E. B. Du Bois in 1951, and the couple later lived in Ghana, Tanzania and China. She won several prizes, including an Anisfield-Wolf Book Award for her 1949 biography of Benjamin Banneker. This photograph of Graham Du Bois was taken by Carl Van Vechten in 1946.Photograph credit: Carl Van Vechten; restored by Adam Cuerden
