Takht-i-Bahi are the ruins of a 1st-century CE Buddhist monastery complex located in what was once the ancient Indian region of Gandhara, in the present-day northern Pakistani province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. It is representative of Buddhist monastic architecture from its era and the ruins were listed as a World Heritage Site in 1980, with UNESCO describing it as having been "exceptionally well-preserved". Pictured here is an aerial view of the complex, showing its various chambers and courtyards.Photograph credit: Muzamil Hussain Toori; retouched by UnpetitproleX
Not much to say about me really :) I am in the UK, which is going to naturally affect a few things. My politics are going to be somewhere to the left of the USA and somewhere to the right of Laos. I try not to let that influence anything I do here. I am subject to UK laws which does affect things, I don't really deal with fair use copyright claims, and I don't recognise first amendment claims. These are just examples. I am going to speak funny, spell some words strangely, use idioms you might have to look up, and employ British humour. At the same time, I am familiar with many international experiences and perspectives. I am not paid by anyone to edit or perform any other actions. I registered this account in 2005, and could write back then, so I am at least that old. I don't possess any pronouns, and yours are probably going to involve the singular they.
Notes for other admins
I am currently an admin and checkuser (along with some other stuff). Other admins should feel free to adjust or reverse any admin actions I've made, as long as they understand the basis and consequences, with the following observations. First, any action I've marked as a checkuser action is based on non-public information and should not be adjusted without consultation with a checkuser. This is actual policy. Any checkuser will suffice, but you might want to start with consulting with me. I would also add with respect to checkuser blocks, revoking TPA (or maybe email) is usually fine but anything else you really should at least let me know. I try to be very precise and deliberate in any action I take. Second, I frequently deal with other private or otherwise unstated information, involving institutional knowledge, LTA cases, and private requests. I'm working on improving my communication skills, but I don't always make clear what's going on for various reasons. If you don't fully understand what's going on then I'm usually happy to provide as much information as I can, and if required, to refer you to people you can check with or appeal to. If in doubt, just ask. And in any case, please just let me know.
