I am a Wikipedian living in Berlin, born in Newcastle upon Tyne. Between these two points I have also lived for a month or more in Alberta, Manitoba, Nebraska, Tennessee, Vitsebsk, Słubice, Kraków, Otwock, Warsaw, Rostov on Don, Düsseldorf, Moscow, Birmingham, Chicago, Hong Kong, New Mexico, Frankfurt (Oder), and Maryland.

I do not like onions at all, hence my username ProhibitOnions. As a vegetarian, this can sometimes make things difficult.

I have been editing Wikipedia since 2004. Some of the edits I'm happiest with are those that improved the standard of an article and helped end bickering over it (such as Russians); however, thanks to revert wars, Wikipedia is currently next to useless on many topics involving countries and religious beliefs that do not enjoy a long tradition of dispassionate discussion. I think I did a good job adding NPOV to others (such as Mother Teresa), but when it comes to such "controversial" topics, it's an uphill battle. In other cases, I've been able to put the vast store of trivia occupying my brain to some use (The Division Bell).

Now that I have succumbed to the easy shorthand of userboxes, you can instantly understand everything there is to know about me, just by reviewing the table to the right.

If you're interested in a signature like mine, please ask NikoSilver, who created mine in his signature shop.
