Requested moves
Moving a page is the renaming of the title of a page. Usually, it is an article, moving which typically entails also moving its related pages (e.g. talk). In controversial discussions to move articles, this user's default position is to keep the current title for the sake of the status quo. However, they remain open-minded and consider the possibility of changing the title if they find that the proposed title would improve the article while still following Wikipedia's policies.
Outside of Wikipedia
I have many things going on outside of Wikipedia, hence my occasional bouts of inactivity. I am on track of becoming a computer scientist, a composer, a writer, a philologist, a digital artist, and a political philosopher. I get half of my education from my tuition-funded job and the other half as self-education. Quite impressive since I, motivated by self-interest, often give up average leisure for the education, even as I was never the valedictorian of my high school or particularly outstanding early on as a student, and just by the scope of my interested fields of expertise. Besides education and Wikipedia, I maintain accounts on the Internet Archive and IMDb. On IMDb, I typically post reviews, the vast majority of which are for video games.
If you thought that my activities are all sedentary, wait until you read what I do for workout. Since January 2022 (I am thinking the latter half, if not late January), I have pushed up for one hour two days almost every week. I often exercise my leg muscles afterward for a minute or two. The first time I tried it, I remember telling my mother that the hour-long push-up was the hardest thing that I have ever done, and I remember being able to go over 300 push-ups, I think, in April. If you are curious as to how far I have progressed, from 09:45 to 10:45 on June 15, 2023, I broke the 2,000 push-up barrier, the first time I have definitively proven that I can go upward of 2,000 push-ups. Regrettably, the very first minute I exercised then, I lost count of how many I made. I believe I made 67 push-ups on the first minute and 26 on the second. Every other minute, I kept the number in the 30s. As I counted, I found that usually it was 34, often it was 35, sometimes it was 33, and rarely it was below 33 or above 35, meaning the average number of push-ups was about 34, or 2,040 per hour. Only after the 50th minute mark did I begin to falter to an average of 33 push-ups per minute. Even if I were so modest as to claim that I averaged 33 the whole time, or 1,980 per hour, the numbers 67 and 26 would average 46.5, so 58 minutes × 33 push-ups + 2 minutes × 46.5 push-ups = 2,007 push-ups. The week of June 15 was also when I became concerned enough about the possibility of overexercising to decide that I will sometimes break it into two 35-minute intervals, though if I feel like getting it all over with for the day, I will do it in one hour.
It has been a while, but I should have updated it a lot sooner. 2,000 push-ups in one hour is an impressive feat. It turns out that I can only do that on a mattress, my preferred place to push up against until June 22, when I switched to the floor. On that day, from about 16:55 (4:55 PM) to about 17:55, I began with 60 repetitions in one minute. After that, I averaged at least 22 repetitions per minute, 23 if my mind is not biased, which in that case would mean that 60 push-ups + 59 minutes × 23 push-ups = 1,417 push-ups—far lower than the 2,000 threshold that I thought I broke. Obviously, my muscles are not wasting. It simply reveals that the floor is easier to perform a push-up on than the mattress, and I still usually feel sore some time afterwards. Trust me, I am as upset about the news as I bet you are disappointed, and I apologize for not updating this sooner. If I stick to my exercise routine, which I strongly plan to, I will eventually get there.
