Shibbolethink is taking a long wikibreak and will be back on Wikipedia when he isn't in the hospital every waking moment of his miserable (but also very rewarding) life.
Shibbolethink(♔♕) from the Hebrew "Shibboleth" /ˈʃɪbəlɛθ/ and "think" from the German "denken" /ˈdɛŋkə(n)/, is a wikipedian who began editing on August 18th of 2014, and has, therefore, been an editor for 10 years, 3 months, and 2 days.
“Seems a bit of a waste, though,” said William. “A waste of words, I mean.”
“Why? There’s always more of them.” Sacharissa patted him gently on the cheek. “You think you’re writing words that’ll last forever? It’s not like that. This newspaper stuff…that’s words that last for a day. Maybe a week.”
“And then they get thrown away,” said William.
“Perhaps a few hang on. In people’s heads.”
“That’s not where the paper ends up,” said William. “Quite the reverse.”
“What did you expect? These aren’t books, they’re…words that come and go. Cheer up.”
