I've been a Wikipedia User since the middle of 2005. I'd known about Wikipedia for a while, but it wasn't until I had to do some basic curiousity based research one day that I discovered its great worth.
I love the idea of Wikipedia and hope to help out in adding to it in a constructive way. The way this collaborative effort works is fascinating.
Drop me a hello on my discussion page if you like.

[edit] Biography
I'm an American male living in the State of Wisconsin. I grew up in the country of Zambia but have lived in the United States for some time now. I am a practicing Lutheran and consider myself as a political conservative. I also tend to vote for candidates rather than parties. I also pay attention to what's going on so I know who to vote for. I've voted in every Federal, state and local election in my area since 2002 (Strike that. I missed one last Tuesday >_<).
[edit] Editing background and philosophy
I've got a strong background in a few things, but mainly on computer games, the Second World War, as well as general American and African history. Of course, being a fellow who loves information, I might be found anywhere around here, tweaking this and that.
I tend to be a grammar nazi, though I only edit if I'm sure about my corrections. I also watch out for little things, formatting, clarity, spelling and the like and make those changes when I can. I'm also pretty active in the Clean-up community, though not officially.
[edit] The Name
- I'm a man, not a woman (the female version of the name would not end in a consonant).
- The name is fantastical, created when I first got on line back in the dark ages of 1997.
- I didn't steal it from Tolkien. I made it up, then read LotR. A lucky coincidence.
[edit] Items I've Added or Edited:
I'm at about 1000 edits now, a lot of them minor edits, but it's still a pretty good tally all things considered.
