Pronouns: She, Her, Hers/They, Them, Theirs
On wikiHow over 3 years!
I use she, her, hers pronouns – but as with most editors around wikiHow, I go perfectly fine with they, them, theirs, too. Normally, if you had any questions or wanted any kind of help from me, all you needed to do was leave me a message on my Talk Page – and I'd get back to you as soon as I could. I would occasionally take a while to respond since our time zones wouldn't have matched up – or if I'd be busy with school.
But unfortunately, I'm on a wikiBreak at the moment, so I might not reply if you contact me via Talk Page. Anyways, hope you have a great wikiDay! :)

Important Announcement:
Butterfly on a wikiBreak from 1st March to 18th April 2022 because of school, her health, and her personal life, along with some other reasons.
She may occasionally pop in, be won’t be active. Please note that Butterfly is not monitoring her talk page on a regular basis. If you need to contact her, please send her an email . If you leave a message on her talk page, you may or may not get a response. And if you don’t get a response, don’t assume she’s ignoring you – she probably just didn’t see!
While she does have a few plans to return, she can’t guarantee. She is human like everyone else, and has personal and family life. While she probably would return at some point, she can’t predict when. Unfortunately, it is likely her wikiBreak will be extended.
If you need any assistance, please post to the Help Team page . Matters requiring immediate attention can be posted to the Administrator Notice Board .
Thanks for understanding!
Who am I?

I'm Butterfly, a random wikiHowian around the site. I'm a Welcomer, New Article Booster, and Featured Author here on wikiHow. I enjoy patrolling recent changes, welcoming new users, boosting new articles, helping with the NFD Guardian, writing and improving articles – you name it. I love wikiHow's collaborative nature, and that's what we're here for! I can't believe what collaboration can achieve on wikiHow – absolute wonders! :)
After joining wikiHow on 18th April 2021, I became a welcomer on 2nd June 2021, and after trying Part-2 of the New Article Boost Test the second time, became a trial booster on 8th October 2021. I enjoyed boosting so much that I was completed the allotted trial batches and became a full-time booster by the 20th of October 2021 (even though the trial period's actually meant to be for a month). On 25th November 2021, I became a Featured Author with four Rising Stars and one Featured Article :)
I'm not perfect at everything nor do I know everything, and I don't have to be! We're all humans, and none of us is perfect. There are certain things I'm good at, and certain things I'm not-so-good at – certain things I know, and certain things I don't know – and I'm totally okay with that. I am always trying to improve, get better at those things I'm not-so-good at, and get to know the things I don't know – and I'm always open to feedback about anything, even if it's something negative! :)
I'm not really a butterfly, of course! I'm a human – a teenage girl. But I do like butterflies, and I'd prefer being referred to as “Butterfly” instead of my username :) And are you wondering what made me pick my “realname”, Butterfly? It's a question I'm often asked and I'm happy to explain: “I had just been searching for a user image and found this (my current image with a butterfly) image. Sometime later, I decided to change my name to butterfly so that both my user image and name show me like a butterfly.”
When can you expect me offline (when I’m not on a wikiBreak)?

Like any other editor on wikiHow, I can't be online 24/7! There will, of course, be times when I'm not online on wikiHow. One thing is pretty obvious – I can't be online when it's nighttime for me. I am, though, one big night owl, so I often do stay up pretty late ;)
Additionally, I'm sometimes offline (meaning “not on wikiHow”, I'm not really off the internet!) on weekends, because I tend to be in a rush to complete my schoolwork on these days. I am generally not unavailable the entire day, I do pay a quick visit and reply to messages – but you can expect me to be less active on Saturdays and Sundays. Sorry! But I do have plenty of stuff to do off-wiki that I can't neglect. On weekdays, I'm usually a lot more active, though!
If you're wondering which time zone I'm in, I follow Indian Standard Time (IST). If you'd like to know the exact time it's at my end right now, you can visit this link. And don't be afraid to leave me a message even if it's nighttime for me, I could respond immediately if I'm still up, or the next day if I've gone to bed. But that doesn't mean you can expect an early morning, response – firstly, I'm a night owl as I mentioned, and secondly, I'm busy with school in the morning, so I typically pop around late afternoon, but I can sometimes early or late! :)
So to summarize it:
- I'm not available late at night, like most others.
- On weekdays, usually I pop in around afternoon or later and stay till bedtime.
- I'm not so active on weekends.

Meet a Community Member
Meet Matt, a volunteer editor from Canada who has been active in the wikiHow community for over 13 years!
Why do they contribute to wikiHow?
"I've been fascinated by the collaborative power of wikis since 2007. There's something amazing about working with people from all over the world, people with different backgrounds and life experiences. On wikiHow, we come together to achieve one common goal: to educate. Throughout my time on here, I've gained trust, respect, and even genuine real-world friendships. I never would have thought that making an account on a website and being a part of an online community would be such a rewarding experience that's impacted my life on so many levels. So after 11 years as a wikiHowian, you think I'm going to stop here? Not a chance."
Their advice to new editors:
"Stick with it. We all know it can be hard to know what to do when you're first starting out. If you think wikiHow is like Wikipedia... it's not. Over there, you might get overwhelmed by complicated guidelines and butt heads with other people because your edit went against their policies. But over here, we have one of the friendliest communities anywhere on the internet, and we try our best to create a supportive, open environment where it's easy to get involved. So don't be afraid to make an edit and ask for help when you need to. As long as you're open to learning how things work around here, I can guarantee you'll have the same positive and impactful experience I've had."
