Hey, I'm Gran2, real name Alex. To begin, I am a male teen from England and my username is explained in a sentence below. Other than that I spend most of my time sitting around here doing not that much. If you don't understand my username I got it from the "Gran" race from Star Wars. My contributions tend to be doing anything I can. About 90% of my edits are in The Simpsons related pages, as I am a principal particpant in The Simpsons Wikiproject. I do profess a "great knowledge" of the subject, as consider it to be the best television show in history. I also work on several film and biography pages. I have been a Wikipedian since March 30, 2006.
My userboxes, and contributions will give you a better idea about me.
These are articles that I have edited substantially and as such I continue to look after and improve them. There are also many pages that I watchlist, but didn't do much work on them and so they are not listed here. How time flies, at the beginning of 2007 I had no achievements to my name, but now I have many. Roll on 2008.

The Simpsons Movie |
2007 film, based on The Simpsons |
Over 700 edits on this one; my favourite article, and what I think is the best work I've done here. Got from Start, through GA. Worked with Alientraveller; my fourth FA. |
|
"Homer's Phobia" |

My first big piece of work, got to GA, then FA. TFA July 27, 2007. Bill Oakley says this page is perfect. [1] |

Troy McClure |
Recurring character on The Simpsons played by the late great Phil Hartman |
Built in my sandbox over about a week, implemented and it was soon a GA. I don't how, but it then became my third FA. Of all my featured contributions, this is the one I'm the least convinced, but who cares? Bill Oakley says it's perfect! [2] |
