[edit] About me
Greetings. I am sj, or Samuel Klein. I am a Wikipedian, a laptop fiend, a mathematics and physics zealot, a clutch proofreader, and a long-time Bostonian. See my blog, SJ's Longest Now, for more. I have an xdi sj-entity, but no .sj domain (Svalbard and Jan Mayen having decided not to allow registrations). I have been here since January 2004. I am currently an administrator here and on the Nahuatl Wikipedia, and a steward for other Wikimedia projects; if you need assistance with a small project that does not currently have active administrators, feel free to ask for help.
I often communicate about what Wiki[p|m]edia does, and organizing local and international community events. I enjoy working on related projects: I am the secretary of the special projects committee, and have a server dedicated to analyzing and running regular statistics on Wikipedia data.
I work to expand the world's collection of free knowledge: identifying and freeing large data repositories and publications owned by well-meaning but copyright-confused people and groups. As of this August, I am the director of content for the One Laptop per Child association; helping to distribute access to these collections and the ability to contribute to them. Over the past two years I have worked at synchronizing Wikipedia-wide translations and bringing together translators from across the projects.
Things I love: physics, language, The City++++, perma-tools, music, poetry, color, nature, meta-lists, stub-sorters, Life, F*C,
Things I loathe: simple dichotomy, navels, myopia, wanton arrogation, addiction to stasis.
Things I miss: all-hands public debates about the projects, quartile updates, GFDL flamewars, single-page VfD, Rambot, writing contests.
Things I am not: SJ, /SJ, e-SJ, sj, SJK, Sjc(+), SJK, SV, Sjc196, Sjorford, Essjay, -R, SJ Phone (sjphone.com), bearded woodsman sjklein, a Jesuit society, Gambro's CIO, Samuel the diarist, a My-Br temperament, a moral lawyer, a Burgess bird, a fabricated Sox fan, or a hiding girl. I do hoard Klein bottles, look snappy in a trenchcoat, but did not model for Levine's detective Sam Klein.

In parting: "Humanity will be destroyed in about a billion years due to increasing sun temperature, and in about five billion years we'll be engulfed by the sun. Hopefully by then we will have colonized other planets, but if we haven't, Wikipedia will be destroyed."

If you need specific advice ( medical, legal, psychosexual, career, arcane, &c. ) please seek a licensed, bonded, and knowledgable professional. YOUR INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION OF ANYTHING FOUND IN WIKIPEDIA IS STRONGLY ADVISED. Love, Sj.
