What I do

edit

My dream, goal, and plan is to not only to help with edits but to help found articles by creating them.

In fact, I intend to specialize in the latter despite the former being easier.

On using LLMs in combination with Wikipedia

edit

My thoughts on using large language models for Wikipedia is something like this: you should be allowed to copy & paste a sentence verbatim, but not multiple paragraphs. Why? Because it's okay to ask for a note from your friend, but you can't take all of their notes and use them in a fashion that is beyond derivative. It's much more likely for a hallucination to occur the more specific and/or sizeable that you make a request, and AI itself is not always going to be a 100% reliable source, so putting trust in something like ChatGPT to write an entire Wikipedia article for you sounds like a recipe for Wikipedian failure, as its exactly what a Wikinoobian would do, but also exactly what Wikipedian veterans fear. The more blind trust and credit that you give those type of machines when writing, the less likely that you are to be in touch with your own writing, so I would advise literally anybody that is consider using a LLM to edit Wikipedia to read the rules about it carefully before doing so and, still, even then, to practice severe discretion when playing with fire like that. The most deceptive part about it all is that a large language model could generate output that is verifiably false but seems true enough to the theoretical Wikipedian for them to use because of the use of the seemingly correct attempt at mimicking the trusted uniform Wikipedian tone which could be used to make nearly anything sound like it is a true fact.

Halloween Harry Potter Luna Lovegood (33195917265)

The "Luna" in my username comes from Luna Lovegood from the Harry Potter series and "Lunavara" itself is Estonian for "ransomware", which was a singing moniker that I chose at random which's sort of stuck ever since: it matches my vibe. I have worked with two people who have got their own Wikipedia articles: Sam Hyde and Viper.
