I have been a Wikipedian since 7/05 (though I edited anonymously since at least 2004) and an admin since 12/05. I've never had much interest in writing about myself here, I'm just some guy who edits Wikipedia. You can easily learn from my edit history that I live in Louisville, Kentucky.

I tend to make AfDs messy and convoluted when I participate in them. Ironically I hated closing AfDs where that kind of stuff happened! Sorry, I just kind of see AfD as truly a discussion, and when we discuss things it becomes a lot less vitriolic and "deletionists vs. inclusionists" and find we actually agree on a lot, and many debates are actually founded on misinterpretations, unfamiliarity with policy or practice, or simply a semantic misunderstanding of eachother (which is all to common in plain text communication). You can discuss it clearly and clarify things, or you can go on misunderstanding eachother and probably get all bitter. I choose to discuss! But if I've made an AfD near-unreadable with long comments heading off towards the right hand side of the screen, sorry!
