Hi, and welcome to my page.

I signed up on the 7^th of September 2005. I am born and raised in Melbourne, Australia. My education extends to a Bachelor of Commerce from Deakin University, with my Honours degree attained in Economics, in 2004.

I initially signed up simply to create the pages for Kačarevo and Banatsko Novo Selo, as they are the small villages in modern day Serbia & Montenegro from which my parents had migrated from. From that point I realised that many of the topics relating to economics are underdone. I feel that I can make a useful contribution to many of the economics stubs that are all too common.

Currently, my contribution count has passed beyond 1100 edits, whilst my main contributions have been in the creation of the following articles:

• Andrejs Everitt
• Astylos of Croton
• Automatic stabiliser
• Banatsko Novo Selo
• Chionis of Sparta
• Economic depreciation
• Induced consumption
• Kačarevo
• Lachlan Hansen
• Marginal propensity to import
• Mofetta
• Scott Gumbleton

[edit] Personal Interests

Fortunately enough, I do have a life outside of Wikipedia. Endless social interactions have kept me from further pursuing my love for sports. Most notably I'm active in tennis and soccer, whilst a life playing AFL is somewhat a dream. If that's not enough, hand me a set of golf clubs and I'll walk around the paddock with you as well. Keeping active is something I need to do, and with the common lifestyle tempting me to a life of laziness my interests in outdoor sports is something I hope to continue on beyond my youth.

On a more serious note (unfortunately), I have a 9 till 5er working as an industry research analyst.

For reverting vandalism I am currently using this in my edit description:

Reverted edits by [[Special:Contributions/IP|IP]] to last version by USER 

Just replace the IP and USER with the relevant information.

[edit] Wikipedia Sites

Lately I've done my part to rid this website of vandalism. Most of my work goes into reverting edits from users who simply blank pages, or who create meaningless pages. My best source to pick out such incidents is the shortpages page. This page will give clear cut indications of pages that have been blanked:

→Shortpages

From here, I would tend to report the more annoying users to the vandalism in progress page, at:

[edit] External Links

Here's a brief list of the websites that I regular:

• Antiwar.com

As you could probably see from the title of this website, I'm a bit of a pacifist. However, I do seek objectivity in my pursuits of finding reputable international news. This site is such a huge news resource that you are bound to come across something interesting.

• The Forums @ Tranceaddict.com

The forums at tranceaddict.com are another top source of entertainment. Visit the Political Discussion / Debate section and you'll come across some characters that will surprise you with their levels of intellectualism (in both a good and bad sense).

• Soccernet.com and Eloratings.net

The most comprehensive soccer news sites on the internet. Soccernet is the Holy Bible of internet soccer reporting, while Eloratings is the Mecca for international match results comprising World Rankings that are far more comprehensive than that of official Fifa rankings.
