Yes, Myopic Bookworm is obviously a pseudonym. I appreciate the arguments for using real names in Wikipedia. However, I work for a publisher, and have to avoid contributing to Internet resources in any way that might be construed as presenting the viewpoint of my employer, or as having their authority. People who know me may be able to guess... (If someone really needs to know who I am, they can leave a note on my talk page.)
I'm just nibbling at the edges of the Wikipedia world, and will probably never have the time to do more, or to participate in the online community in a substantial way. But every little helps...

Managed to get some last-minute tidying into J. R. R. Tolkien before it came up as a featured article yesterday. 16 November 2006
Yay! Rush were the featured article this Tuesday (19 September 2006).
I must confess to getting a little disenchanted by the constant bickering on the Christianity page. Most of it seems to be based not in a genuine desire to present factual information in a relatively unbiased way, but rather in a desire to distort the consensus in the direction of minority or anti-Christian opinion. I'm not sure how long I will continue to contribute. (But it's almost as bad on the Buddhism page!) 18 May 2006

[edit] things to do
Pulmonata: entry needs more than copy of classification lifted from Gastropoda; also needs disambig from Pulmonata used of arachnids with book lungs.
Ruiz y Pavon: needs translating from Spanish Wikipedia
[edit] Legal mumbo jumbo
