[edit] Lifetime

[edit] Early days and latter days

Burningclean was born on March 26, 1993 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Burningclean's dad works at a factory, and his mom is a nail tech. Sometime in early 2007, Burningclean became a Christian as well as a Wikipedian. Growing up, Burningclean got many stitches and was suspended from school numerous times. As of late 2007, Burningclean has stayed out of trouble, and hangs out with friends and edits Wikipedia.[5]

[edit] Wikiholism

On March 26, 2007, Burningclean got his first taste of Wikipedia. From April through November, Burningclean made countless mindnumbingly boreing edits. However, in November Burningclean became a full fledged Wikiholic, working on Godsmack nonstop. By mid December, he took a downward spiral and Godsmack became a featured article. Burningclean was very happy for this, but he did not know that he would soon consume himself with Alice in Chains. He worked for hours a day on Alice in Chians, collection sources all day. Several days after Godsmack was promoted to featured article status, Alice in Chains became a good article. Burningclean rushed himself into nominating Alice in Chains to featured article candidate, only to have it fail a few days later. He was mad, yet determined to continue his work on he article. A week later, after working on the article more, he noiminated it for featured article again. After one of the longest ever FACs, Alice in Chains was finally promoted on February 11, 2008. Buringclean was very happy. His wikiholism has gotten far worse, scoring nearly 4,000 on his Wikiholism test. Burningclean has also worked on getting Godsmack discography and Alice in Chains discography to featured list status. He also has significantly contributed to making Chevelle, Shadows Fall, Lamb of God (band), Opeth, Machine Head (band), and Down (band) to good article status. Burningclean rewrote The Crucified, however when it was at GAN, it's notability was disputed. Burningclean was pretty ticked off. His current goals are to get United Abominations to GA and to get Opeth to FA.
