[edit] Wikipedia and Me
Long time fan of Wikipedia. So far I´ve added myself to a few Wikiprojects, for the moment focusing on correcting grammar, spelling, typos, etc. while I learn the ropes of Wiki editing. I´m not a master of English grammar, but I can contribute with what I can. I intend to translate my favorite articles to the Spanish Edition.
I'm not skilled enough at editing yet and I still make some mistakes here and there. My biggest gaffe so far has been accidentally erasing a significant part of an article on the current Iraq war (doesn't appear in my contributions list since I didn't log in before that edit). As soon as I noticed, I gasped, stared in disbelief, and then proceeded to straighten up my mess, but apparently I didn't do well enough since another user then came along, reverted the article to a previous version, and labeled my actions as "vandalism". That day I swore I'd eventually master the arts of Wikipedia editing and make up for my dark past.

[edit] About Quirozom
I'm currently a Model United Nations advisor and a History Major, besides being a Medical school drop out. I live in Monterrey, Mexico and was born in Ciudad de Mexico (Mexico City). I'm a Mexican citizen with German-American, Mexican Mestizo, and Spanish heritages. Arguably a Third Culture Kid.
Interests: Photography, History, Martial Arts, Literature, and Biology.
[edit] Works in progress
- American Virgin: Working on expanding the article with a characters section and a brief explanation of what goes on in Volume 1. Should have it up by 27 December 2006. /AV contribution sandbox.
[edit] To do list
Most likely in the following order:
- I plan to write an article for both Invasion and Planeshift novels by J. R. King here and in Wikibooks, which are waiting lonely in the List of Magic: The Gathering Novels. I'd like to write one for Apocalypse too, but I'd be unable to write a thorough article without having read it yet and that means I'd need to get a copy first and foremost. /Invasion contribution sandbox /Planeshift contribution sandbox.
- I'd like to improve the Prepa Tec article which is not great yet and lacks some information. I'd also like to begin an article for Prepa Tec Campus Cumbres and the other high schools which still lack an article of their own. /PT contribution sandbox /PTCC contribution sandbox.
- There's no article yet for the Medical school of the Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León. I'll write it sometime in January I hope. /UANLFM contribution sandbox.
- Gonna improve the Mega Man X (series) article. /MMXseries contribution sandbox.
