From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My name is Simon Lyall. I started contributing to Wikipedia in July 2004.

For more information about me see my homepage. I don't believe in putting 50 boxes all over this page to show my languages spoken, favourite browsers and the like.

As of 28 January 2007 I have made around 4017 edits to the English Language Wikipedia.

My 1000th edit on 17 Oct 2005 was this one to the Wikipedia:About page.
My 2000th edit on 15 March 2006 was this which added some content to the Deaths section of the 1982 in New Zealand article.
My 3000th edit on 30 July 2006 appears to be this which removed some categories from Lanchester Valley Railway Path.
My 4000th edit on 27 January 2007 appears to be this which fixed a link from the book Code Blue - Emergency to its author James White.

[edit] A quote

I used to be involved in Usenet a bit. Here is a quote that might be applicable to some who forget we're here to write an encyclopedia not debate their pet issues or form a social club.

"...it's about damn time that all of us who actually give a damn about Usenet stand up and tell the people who don't to fuck off and die." -- Russ Allbery
