My Diary
   
Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower. ~Hans Christian Andersen.
Hope, deceitful as it is, serves at least to lead us to the end of our lives by an agreeable route. ~ François Duc de La Rochefoucauld.

Hello! Welcome to my userpage. I am Sainsf, an Indian Wikipedian. I joined the community in 2010, but became actually active from 2012. It's been almost 10 years here; a long journey from back when I was in school to now, when I am a chemistry undergraduate. I have mostly been a contributor to natural history articles, and an active good article reviewer. I became less active here after 2016 due to big changes in real life, but I have started contributing significantly again from late 2019. I am thankful to many editors who helped me become who I am today here, especially Mysdaao and Sasata (who have since become inactive).

I can try doing reviews for you if I have the time and interest, just leave me a message on my talk page. Newbies, I would feel honored to help you! Note: This userpage is based on a design by Phaedriel (we miss you <3).

Though these userboxes I racked up from literally everywhere in my early days on Wiki (yeah I was a crazy teen) speak way more than you need to know about me (:P), here are some details anyway:

  • I joined Wikipedia way back in my early teens.. mostly on an impulse to create an article. Then I made all sorts of mistakes, even wondered if I did the right thing by joining. But nearly ten years later, I am so glad I did. This platform has helped me learn a lot how to communicate, how to write scientific articles and all in all has been a rewarding experience!
  • I am no expert on natural history, though I have a good understanding of biology up to an intermediate level. My interest in natural history is mostly amateurish, in real life I am a chemistry nerd. May be I will start working on chem articles later in the future, but I wish to improve a lot of neglected mammal articles for now.
  • I am female but sort of a tomboy. It amuses me every time I'm referred to as "he" :D

My stuff – This is where I treasure all my significant contributions in one place :)

Modern gravestone of Justus
Modern gravestone of Justus

Justus was the fourth archbishop of Canterbury. Pope Gregory the Great sent Justus to England on a mission to Christianise the Anglo-Saxons, probably arriving with the second group of missionaries despatched in 601. Justus became the first bishop of Rochester in 604 and signed a letter to the Irish bishops urging them to adopt the Roman method of calculating the date of Easter. He also attended a church council in Paris in 614. Following the death of King Æthelberht of Kent in 616, Justus was forced to flee to Gaul but was reinstated in his diocese the following year. In 624, Justus became Archbishop of Canterbury, overseeing the despatch of missionaries to Northumbria. He died on 10 November, probably sometime between 627 and 631. After his death, he was revered as a saint and had a shrine in St Augustine's Abbey in Canterbury, to which his remains were translated in the 1090s (gravestone pictured). (This article is part of a featured topic: Members of the Gregorian mission.)

Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, peoples rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension. Happy Holidays to you and yours. ―Buster7  14:29, 24 December 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for all you do as an editor, and for your excellent work as a GA reviewer. Faisalabad was not an easy review to tackle but you stood fast, went the extra mile, and helped make it a better article. Thank you. Atsme📞📧 10:57, 20 June 2016 (UTC)


The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
Dear Sainsf;
I am delighted to share with you (and with our colleague w.carter) this barnstar, which I was awarded by Jamesmcardle for helping with his signature but, since you two first identified his need for assistance and the appropriate solution, I feel it should be shared within our spontaneous team of three.
James still needs to apply the latest update to his signature, but I daresay it should be alright after that.
Thank you for all your contributions to our encyclopedia and for helping your fellow editors.
With kind regards;
Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(guestbook) 14:42, 19 June 2016 (UTC)


The Barnstar of Diligence
Your clear, precise guidance in reviewing Sydney punchbowls pointed the way forward. Given the specialisation of the subject matter, your capacity to analyse and assess its material was a revelation to me. I was comfortably in the back seat with you driving, but learning how I might take the wheel in future. With gratitude! JamesMcArdle 12:40, 11 June 2016 (UTC)


The Barnstar of Diligence

Thank you for making the GA review (usually a rather gruesome and exhausting affair) of Sydney punchbowls into a pleasant and rewarding experience. Your collegial way of working with all the editors involved is an example to us all! w.carter-Talk 11:42, 11 June 2016 (UTC)
