[edit] Ian's Stuff
Hi. I've been hanging around here since about October 2003, with my first edit being this [1] and a bit on Michael Jeffery. Most of my editing to date has been related to Australia and cricket, but my interests are fairly diverse and you could see my name against almost any article. I'm also interested in history and information technology subjects.
In the Wikiholic test I scored 96 which surprised me because I thought I had it bad. Some of you others out there must have big problems! (was previously 162 but since then I've had a hard look at myself).
By the way, my name is an anagram of "Barn Wino". My full name converts to "Barrow Inventor". I don't know what all this means.

A captive Mexican Wolf (Canis lupus baileyi) at the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge, New Mexico, USA. This critically endangered subspecies of the Gray Wolf once ranged from central Mexico to the Southwestern United States. In 1980, the last five known surviving members were captured to save the species. Now, over 300 wolves are taking part in a wolf reintroduction program, with at least fifty individuals in the wild.
