Si's work on the wiki is normally sporadic, random and piecemeal.

He likes:

  • Starting off big projects on topics that he's clueless on and hoping others will correct his mistakes and take the project far further down the road to completion.
  • Talking about himself in the third person.

He dislikes:

  • Ceremonial Counties, especially when Highways Authorities or Traditional Counties are also given.
  • His old roads by 10 articles
