[edit] Picture of the Day
[edit] Kerowyn
A Wikipedia addict who created an account to help justify hours spent correcting grammar and spelling. To this end I joined the Cleanup Taskforce.
My special areas of expertise include anime, English, history, medicine, science fiction, fantasy, and psychology. This list changes daily and sometimes hourly, so I can't be bothered to stay up to date on all the changes.
I am a self-proclaimed English nerd, and bad writing makes my skin crawl. More technical aspects of Wikipedia (such as article merging) are beyond my grasp at the moment, but I'll take a crack at anything that gets placed on my desk for clean up.
My edit count exploded recently. I must confess, however, that the vast majority of those edits come from RC Patrol and stub sorting, rather than more significant contributions.

[edit] WikiSightings
Wikipedia is becoming (some might say it's happened already) the greatest depository of information since Alexandria. So it's only natural to see it in the halls of academia. The following is a tally of the number of times I've spotted other people using Wikipedia on campus.
Library computer: 5
On a laptop, in the middle of class: 2
