Hmm. Let's see. How many Wikipedias are there? Right. How many of them
have no active users AT ALL? How many would be better candidates for
vandalisation if I wanted to vandalise a Wikipedia? A lot of them, is
the answer.

Toki Pona, as I said before, was something I did IGF although in
retrospect I realise it was a bad decision on my part. I never denied
having done it, and I apologised for it as well.
