The worst problem of the 21st century is that many people want positions of leadership, but they don't want to make difficult decisions
”
—Carlos Ghosn, President & CEO of Renault/Nissan, in an interview to Veja on the difficult decisions he had to make in order to save Nissan from bankrupcy
Some may wonder why I have gotten involved with so many "puerile" topics. That is what I call a "mission": helping topics/articles that are uninteresting to the more skilled contributors remain or attain an encyclopedic standard; or guarantee that topics that are, in fact, worthy of an entry do get included, as opposed to being left out due to the aforementioned lack of interest from the community. I have made hundreds of contributions to articles one may consider "more serious" or "more relevant" than some of the articles listed above, but in those I'm neither the creator of the article nor one of its main contributors. For more on this kind of effort, visit the WikiProject listed below, of which I am a member.
