I'm a self confessed Wiki-addict who spends his time either pottering around here or trying to learn Electronic Engineering at University. I live in the UK but haven't always; somehow my parents were disorganised to be in Germany when I was born. This was before the unification by the way so it wasn't exactly safe! Unfortunately for you guys I seem to have survived and so here I am to do my damage to this great encylopedia, fortunately though I am a nice person so you shouldn't have to worry too much! [edit] Hobbies, Interests and Expertise Mostly my hobbies seem to be based on computers, which isn't suprising really. I have an interest in pretty much anything electrical / electronic - especially if I can take it apart to see how it works. Also I have a big interest in Web design, mostly the programming , and have built a few websites (Higher Fingle Farm, Starlincs Planetarium) through the small company I run with a friend. I self taught myself PHP, Html and Mysql and I like to think that I have a good understanding of all 3. Currently I am working on a PHP based project called LIVE! which is a sort of social betworking and productivity site (anyone who wants to help ouit get in touch we need you). Other than that I like both reading and writing stuff - especially the writing. I like to think I am quite a good writer after having published a couple of articles. [edit] Travels Places I have Lived Places I have visited Places I want to go [edit] On Wikipedia I only really got into Wikpedia a few months ago when I was aked to write the MINERVA article, it was a oretty pants start but I am a quick learner and have improved since then. Mostly I like to pick and improve new articles that are really short and pointless. You would be supprised how many new stubs can be researched in an hour or so in google. In truth I try my hand at anything and everything because I feel that specialising at a single thing actually minimizes productivity (oooh technical!). For example I occasionally use VandalProof when I get the chance (although I am very careful with is - especially as I got approved before I should have thanks to a kind admin) or tour the RC's or New pages sepcial pages.

[edit] Macedonia rewrite idea

The term "Macedonia" itself has (or has had) many meanings for example in a current geographical context it refers to a region of the Balkan peninsula in south-eastern Europe. Although the region's borders are not officially defined by any international organization or state,^[1] in some contexts_↓, the territory appears to correspond to the basins of (from west to east) the Haliacmon (Aliákmon, Bistritsa), Vardar (Axios) and Struma (Strymónas) rivers, and the plains around Thessaloniki (Solun) and Serres (Serez). In ancient Greece Macedonia was a kingdom in the northern-most part of the country, bordering the kingdom of Epirus on the west and the region of Thrace to the east. The area approximately coincided with contemporary Macedonia in Greece. As a province in the Roman Empire Macedonia lasted from 146 BCE to 395 CE. It incorporated Epirus vetus Thessaly, and parts of Illyria and Thrace. The name also applied to a province of the Byzantine Empire), despite its name largely occuping Eastern Thrace. It was bordered by the provinces of Constantinople, Thrace, Thessaloniki and Strymon. There is also controversial references to the term as sovereign state, namely the Republic of Macedonia. Finally the term applies to a region of Greece), namely one of the three regions of Northern Greece.
