The Wikipedia Cabal. Next step: world domination!

My name is Steve and I come from Gloucestershire in England.

The articles I've worked on most are The KLF (which I've helped take to Featured Article status), The KLF discography, and articles related to The Beatles.

A short-hop link between two of my favourite subjects: "The nearest parallel to the K Foundation donation would be The Beatles' grandiose plans for Apple Corps; but where Apple handed out money willy-nilly to little end and failed to achieve anything more than get some hippies stoned and put up some nice posters about war being over if you want it, Drummond and Cauty have found a specific target - the relationship between art, money and the critical establishment- and attacked it. By actually offering UKP40,000 to the artist who produces the duffest piece of work, they've simultaneously sent up the whole thing and proved their integrity the hard way." (NME)

The Original Barnstar
I don't know how you feel about these Barnstar thingies, but I felt that, considering your contributions and seemingly tireless work (and the fact that you need to seek a Real Life™), you needed to be recognised as a valuable contributor to Wikipedia. Congrats! Mal 14:52, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
