about me

Hi. As you're on my user page, I'll assume you want to know a little bit about me. =) (If you don't, you can skip this bit. I know I would if I were you.) I'm currently a college student living in England, and I like to contribute to Wikipedia in my spare time.

I tend to edit articles on bands, musicians, and mammals (your guess is as good as mine) although in the past I have been known to renovate an article that doesn't interest me at all, just because it needed a good cleanup. I try to focus on adding citations, rather than adding large amounts of content, though it depends on my mood. I also tag articles with cleanup templates in the hope that someone will have the good will to do something about it. Not to mention identifying problems with fair use images on the side. I'm interested in the Spoken Article WikiProject, and have made several contributions to that, and hope to continue doing so. If you're interested in what I'm doing right now (god knows why, but everyone has their reasons, right?), take a look at my to-do list, though beware, it may be a bit out of date! Or empty. One of the two.

I'm also quite active at fighting vandals — I'll remove vandalism on my watchlist as soon as I find it, and once or twice per month I'll use VandalProof to go on a vandal-fighting spree. Which sounds a lot more impressive than it really is. If you've read all of this, well done. Most people might give you a reward for doing so, but that's not really my style. Have a fun day!
