About Me

Hello Wikipedians! Welcome to my user page! I want to introduce myself on Wikipedia.

About me on Wikipedia

I attempted my first edit on Wikipedia sometime in late 2013 to early 2014 as an unregistered user on the Appleton International Airport article. I joined Wikipedia in early June 2014, with the very username I still use today. My first edits were to add FedEx as a cargo airline at Appleton airport. I slowly learned more about cool tricks I could do with Wikipedia and built myself up. I started to do a little editing to Wisconsin GA articles in the summer of 2016 and in July 2016, I published my first article; Pioneer Airport. Today I have nearly 11,000 edits to my name across the whole family of wikis Wikipedia is part of and roughly 50 brand new articles which I have lead or contributed to its creation. Recently I have taken a bit of a step back from Wikipedia due to other personal reasons but still, log in and make an edit at least once a week.

What I do on Wikipedia

I am a very varied person here on Wikipedia. Some days I'm working on an aviation article, other days I'm working on an article on a different subject, and on other days I'm in a program like Huggle reverting vandal edits. I have also been known to be quite curious always trying out new things and experimenting.

Personal life

Now I want to share a small bit of my personal life with you. I was raised in the town of Grand Chute, Wisconsin just outside Appleton, Wisconsin. I still live in the Appleton Metro area to this day. In my free time, I like to edit Wikipedia, cycle on my bike, plane spot at Appleton International Airport, and a whole bunch of other things season-dependent. I am an FAA licensed aircraft maintenance technician (A&P), as well as an FCC/Aircraft Electronics Association, certified Aircraft Electronics Technician.

How to provide a Google search in a link

Here is an example of a link which activates a Google search: Tip of the day, on Wikipedia

It was built using this wikilink:
[[google:"Tip of the day"+site:en.wiki.x.io|Tip of the day, on Wikipedia]]

Sometimes it is useful to place a link to a Google search directly in a discussion. You can also use links to predefine an entire search session, and then use a tool like WP:LINKY to open the searches all at once into separate web browser tabs.
