Number36 is a native of Christchurch, New Zealand aka ÒTautahi, Aotearoa.
I'll be all over Wikipedia really, editing this and that as it catches my interest, though having a specific and long lasting interest in it I have edited quite a few Science Fiction related pages, mostly minor stuff like spelling, grammar etc, but sometimes more. I did a lot of work in particular on constructing the Science Fiction Theatre page.

If somebody knows how I can create something like a 'sandbox page', or put this into 'user space' could they please tell me how to create such a thing, as I don't know, and it's proving a bit messy & difficult to work with here on my talk page.Number36 03:49, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
