HOVERCAR ON WHEELS

I am a PhD student living in Paris. I joined WikiPedia because I got fed up with the incredible amount of typos and grammar errors, but I also do real contributions. I like controversial topics. If you want to know more about me, please see my home page.

I like humour and Theresa Knott. I dislike bitmap emoticons, hypocrites and user pages written in the third person.

Also, my surname has nothing to do with hovercars whatsoever. As you may see in the picture on the left, they are two very different things.

[edit] Statistics

Nemo of honour for pointing out lots of tiny annoying mistakes

This page has been vandalised seventeen (17) times.

There are 7000 occurrences of the word fuck in the database, and 1842 occurrences of various derivatives such as fucks, fucking, fucked, fucker, fuckers. One can also enjoy almost 300 other derivatives, including fucktard, fuckhead, buttfuck and motherfucker.

[edit] My contributions

Since 2004, I have been fixing thousands of common grammar and spelling errors, such as “it’s” / “its” confusions. I did thousands of other grammar and spelling fixes. I try to fix spelling on sister projects as well, through the Wikispelling project. In total, I did more than 50,000 edits to Wikipedia.

I have been contributing mostly anonymously since the year 2006 and have found it to be a lot more enjoying.
