My name is Jeffery Nichols and I am a Canadian 22 year old human male. I grew up in Agincourt, Ontario (part of Toronto) and am now a student at Queen's University in Kingston majoring in Canadian Studies. Despite my username, I am not a wikignome. This was just the name I've been using elsewhere on the Internet. Most of my edits are about Canadian political history and nerd media. I spend a good amount of time working on lists.
I’ve stopped paying attention to my exact edit count. It was fairly silly way of measuring contribution since edits can very greatly in size. I’ve also gotten rid of userboxes that were only about my personal opinions on issues, as those made me POV and not really fit to write and edit an encyclopaedia.
That’s about all I have to say. Cheers.
