Hello! My name is TCMemoire, but I respond to Spirit or Memoire. I have been a Wikipedian since July 2013. I am currently semi-active, making a few edits every month. I am mainly a member of WikiProject National Register of Historic Places but also participate in WikiProject South Dakota, WikiProject Ghost Towns, and WikiProject LGBT.
I participate/have participated in multiple projects and perform several behind-the-scenes tasks, including anti-vandalism and stub sorting. I use Twinkle, HotCat, and Huggle.
I'm always eager to help where I'm needed. Remember that I am only human; I will inevitably make mistakes but am always learning. Feel free to leave any comments, concerns, etc. on my talk page!
