User:Twas Now

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am a heavy addict of the Reference Desks, will sometimes assist at the Help Desk, and will sporadically chime in at WP:MfD, WP:CfD, WP:UCFD, WP:AfD, and WP:RfA.

My interests are mainly related to music, particularly Canadian indie music, and to science, particularly evolutionary theory, zoology, and biochemistry. However, I have done some translation of French Wikipedia articles (by request or from this list), and some proofreading of translated articles.

I am a WikiGnome, making small changes (grammatical, typographical, syntactical, punctuational) when I see them, and sometimes even looking at random pages to do just this. Maybe I just have editcountitis.

Some other wiki accounts I hold, though I am not very active on them:

Man on Horseback Crossing a Bridge by Hiroshige.
