My namesake, mathematician Felix Hausdorff.

This editor is a Veteran Editor, and is entitled to display this Iron Editor Star. (Next goal: 40,000th edit by Feb. 2011.)

Hi, I'm Haus. I've been editing here for, well, considerably more than two years. I generally work on articles related to ships, the shipping industry, navigation, maritime unions -- the gentle reader may be able to detect a pattern emerging. My encyclopedic editing (as opposed to talk pages, portals, projects, and templates) tends to focus on turning stub- and start-class articles into high-B-class articles.

I hope to one day have merchant shipping articles in good enough shape that I can kick back and work on something amusing like Mick Farren.

I go to sea for months on end, so if I appear dormant it's probably because I am.

If you're wondering if I'm that Haus, the answer is yes. I used to have a pet demon named Balzhur that was the bane of the silly people everywhere.

More random babbling about myself in particular and the universe in general is available on my about page.

My todo lists, notes to self, and so-forth...
