He enjoys English, with a particular emphasis on proofreading, and also enjoys classic literature (especially American and British), with some SF and Fantasy thrown in. He loves books! Some of his favorite authors are Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, Ernest Hemingway, Ellen G. White, and William Faulkner.

This user is a member of the Missing article WikiProject. |
His first new page was on Southwestern Adventist University, but he really enjoys copyediting, and has fixed typos and reworked articles on everything from Dickens to Cuzco, from Pendragon to Juan Moreira.
He has been a Wikipedian since about 20 November 2004.
He has also joined many other projects, shown in the links above. He is an administrator on Simple English Wiktionary, Simple English Wikibooks, and Simple English Wikiquote. He is considering requesting administrator status on English Wikipedia, among others. One of his pet projects is Simple English Wiktionary, which as of Feb 2006 is very small (only about 218 entries). He believes it can become a useful resource for users of Simple English Wikipedia, by providing definitions which use simpler English, making them easier to understand. While the definitions will generally be limited in vocabulary, the idea is to use simple words to define basically all English words in the English Wiktionary.
A poem: Oh, the joys of emendation
Oh, the rapture and the fun
Lost myself in contemplation
Life and wiki, each a pun
¡Viva Wikipedia!
