[edit] Who?

My name is Seth Matthew, and I'm a student from Queens, New York, NYC. Some of my interests include satire, etymology, the Copyfight, the debate over Intelligent Design versus the theory of evolution, and various other issues (all of which I am conveniently correct about).

[edit] What?

"Ipsenaut" is a portmanteau of the Latin ipse, or 'self', and the Greek nautikos, in this context meaning 'explorer'.

[edit] How?

My edits are largely copyediting or cosmetic changes, given that my education pales in comparison to the expertise many Wikipedians have amassed. I try to avoid contentious discussion that I know will go nowhere. I am obsessed with interconnectedness, so I have a poor habit of adding links that might be superfluous. Aside from that, I stick to lurking.

It is worth noting that I am profoundly jealous of mutlilingual Wikipedians, and admire all the work you do for Wikipedia.
