Thi's user know's that not every word that end's with s need's an apostrophe and will remove misused apostrophe's from Wikipedia with extreme prejudice.
’s
This user realises that plural nouns should not have an apostrophe while possessive words should!
"…"! US vs. UK
This user uses "logical quotation marks". Forcing internal punctuation leads to factual errors. It's not a nationalistic style issue!
Pickyness Pickiness
This user changes the adjective ending "y" to "i" to form nouns with "-ness".
Hello! This is Jordan's user page.
Welcome everyone who has come onto this page, I hope you like it! Vandalism, like any other page on Wikipedia, is not allowed.
As you have all probably noticed, I am very enthusiastic when it comes to my userpage. Believe it or not, this page did in fact used to be much longer, until I had quite a lot of personal info removed for my own safety as I'm only a kid. I did my first edit to Wikipedia on 12 April2007, and am still ongoing!
Anyone wanting to say hello or submit a message, please feel free to do so on my discussion/talk page. Again, vandalism, etc is prohibited. Please remember that messages about my userpage and/or me as a Wikipedia user in general are supposed to be submitted.
I hope you have fun reading through it (well, perhaps not all of it) - it should keep you occupied for a while, especially if your include the userboxes.

Twas the night before Christmas when all through my house Not a creature was stirring, apart from my mouse Then suddenly the kitchen's window latch tossed And in through the window stepped Kate Moss
Nothing could be heard apart from the cars But Neptune and Venus were talking to Mars Kate looked up, Kate looked down And then her nice smile turned into a frown
She cheered herself up by eating some ham And then started stiffing some raspberry jam Just then I woke up and shouted "Japan!" And then came in Miss Foale, Kyle and Han*
They all started chatting, they spoke so clear But I didn't know Han was holding a spear Then woke my sisters, my mum and my dad Then my cat and my dog which I don't even have
We all crept downstairs and watched the four people Who were all staring out at the church steeple The steeple turned blue, then green, then red Then Han swung his spear and we were all dead
The moral of this story is to love one another Not murder your friends, your sister, your brother Twas the night beforw Christmas when all through my house Not a creature was stirring, apart from a Han
* Miss Foale is currently one of my English teachers, Kyle and Han are classmates.
My Claims To Fame!
My uncle by marriage, Dr Simon (surname witheld), is the head coach of the local Rugby Club (name witheld) and is now a part-time coach.
My uncle (Simon)'s uncle, Glen (surname witheld) is a famous film editor and has edited a few major films.
Because of the resemblance my Grandad, Derek (surname witheld), bears to Patrick Stewart, he has been involved in a few charity events across the country. These charity events included famous actors and other stars signing autographs for the public. I was invited to one of these events with my grandad and met Harry Potter, Lord Of The Rings and Star Wars stars. My Grandad and I are now friends with Devon Murray, who plays Seamus Finnigan in the Harry Potter films and his mother, Delly.
Because of the above reasons, my Grandad got himself, me and Stephen (friend) tickets to see the cast and crew screening of the latest Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. We went to the Empire cinema in London to see this film on the 23 June2007, which was 10 days before the world premiere in Japan on the 3 July2007. We watched the film with friend Delly, Devon Murray's mother. After this trip to London, Stephen printed the story in his school newsletter, Parkview (Summer Term 2007). In this story, Stephen stated that the whole trip had been worthwhile and my Grandad, Devon Murray, Delly (Fidelma) Murray, Chris Rankin and I were all mentioned.
My Grandad, Derek (mentioned above) is the current vice president a local Hockey Club (name witheld).
My Grandad has invited my whole family and I to a local cricket club (name witheld), where the Club had put on a barbeque and were playing one-off games of cricket because of the appearance of the celebrity chefGordon Ramsey, although we didn't know he was coming. Gordon came with the cricket players and played games of cricket because he wanted Raz to get the idea of how he was treating his staff (he did this by tying the players' limbs together). Raz is the manager of an Indian restaurant in Nottingham, which featured for the hour-long episode 7, series 5, of Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares on Channel 4, aired on 11 December2007. My family and I were all seen for a few seconds at the cricket club on TV. We also had our pictures taken with Gordon.
I've recently found out that all Forsyths are related in my research into my paternal Grandma's side of my family. If this source is correct, I will be related to all Forsyths in the world, as all were descended from Guirand de Forsyth, born in the year 1211 in France. Along with this meaning I am distantly French, I would be related to people such as Bruce Forsyth (the presenter of Strictly Come Dancing).
Wikipedia is probably the most effective and detailed factual site on the Internet in my opinion, giving you information about virtually anything about everything in the form of 6,899,835 articles in English (main page accessable here) and in much more languages if you don't speak English. Wikipedia is also available on mobile phones that have access to the Internet and also has lots of separate "wikis" (all viewable on the List of wikis page).
Of course, it is the continued editing of the vistors/users/administrators of Wikipedia that keep it running and up to date. I am a member, and therefore have the authority to edit any article on Wikipedia. Also, people without an account can edit any page no matter how old they are. But it is free to start up an account on Wikipedia and I advise people to do so. To view the articles I have created, see User:Jordan5001/Articles
Wikipedia is very useful for school research and, as it happens, everything that has nothing to do with school as well.
I hope you find Wikipedia useful! Have a good day!
Nonsense Stories
The storyline of these stories I have taken an interest in writing is meant to be "stupid" and make no sense at all to make the reader laugh at the nonsense. Many people have read it at school and have approved the story and have encouraged me to write more.
The Woodlouse
The Woodlouse is the first of my fictional nonsense stories created by myself when Jodie and I first started making up "stupid" stories with each other. This story follows the life of a woodlouse who gets a school newsletter-printing machine stuck to his back, is allergic to gluten-free products and gets himself into a huge dilemma concerning the whole planet.
The Russian Cabbage
This is the sequel to The Woodlouse (despite the fact that it does not relate to the previous story at all). It is roughly the same length and was completed on 24 February2008, typed up on 7 June2008. This one follows a cabbage who grew an extra arm and a pot of blackberryjam who live in Russia who eventually end up meeting Hagrid.
Both stories are too large too write here. Besides, Wikipedia's purpose is not to advertise personal stories! However, if you wish to read a copy of the story, please say so and who you are on my talk page and I can email it to you.
Word of the Week
I now have a completely random word each week. Here's a list of all the random words I have used: Please note that some these words are meant to link to disambiguation pages.
