User:Jfdwolff

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am a Dutch doctor living and working in the United Kingdom. According to some sources, I should be classified as an incorrigible Wikipediholic. I have no watchlist anymore, since it was interfering with healthy Wikipedia activity. Please attract my attention on my talkpage if assistance is required.

My role on Wikipedia:

• I arrived sometime in February 2004. I became an administrator on 10 May 2004.
• I made my 30,000th namespace edit sometime on 24 September 2007, and when I last checked I was number 129 by number of edits.
• My main interest is medicine, and WikiProject "Clinical medicine" (formerly "WikiDoc", now simply "WikiProject Medicine") started on this userpage.
• I do edits on Judaism articles and participate in Wikiproject "Judaism".
• Some of my editorial policies include the removal of unnotable external links and "see also" entries, trivia and content that cannot be supported with references.
• In the interest of verifiability I aim to use academic sources that are freely available, but not at the expense of the quality of the source.
