Hello. This page is for Project Participants to introduce themselves and tell a little about their background and interests in mixed drinks and related drinkware. If you are a Participant, please add a new section with your Wikipedia name for the topic and describe yourself and your reasons for participating in and goals to achieve through this WikiProject. Thanks!

Hello. I got involved with this WikiProject in late November 2006. At the time, the List of cocktails was in very bad shape. A few edits turned into well over a thousand edits in that article and the articles linked from that page. I quickly realized that this was too big of a job for one person, and I worked to revive the WikiProject responsible for overseeing these articles.

I have made several goofs along the way, but all with the best of intentions. :-) Fortunately there are a lot of great people here at Wikipedia who offer help when you need it. I have found that even when I think my way is best, there is usually a better way to do things. Therefore, I am a pretty open-minded person, even if I seem a bit hesitant at first. I have invested a lot of time and effort into improving both the Wikipedia articles on this topic and to this WikiProject.

This is rather ironic, considering that I rarely drink mixed drinks, alcoholic or otherwise. My knowledge on the subject has increased dramatically, but I am still far from an expert when it comes to details about the various drinks. I am a quick learner, an effective researcher, a decent copy editor, and a good organizer. These are all talents that have been put to the test since getting involved in this WikiProject.

My favorite alcoholic drinks: Mai Tai (if a blender is available) or a Rum & Coke if not. Favorite non-alcoholic drinks: Water and Tea.

Hi, I'm interesting in writing/editing some articles. I've adopted a few on the adoption list. I'm working on the Sidecar, Sazerac, Jack Rose and Satan's Whiskers aricles.

Hello, I just jumped right in and started working on a few cocktails. I had been following some links and when I hit a dead in, I started filling in the blanks. So far I have done Nikolaschka, edited the [[Grasshopper (beverage), and made an entry for the Bijou Cocktail. I am rather new to editing but hope to try and help out.
