Kateshortforbob is coming and going

I go by kateshortforbob all over the Internet; I answer to Kate, although it isn't my real-life name. I've been a member of Wikipedia since Autumn 2006, but I must have gotten distracted by something shiny, because I didn't begin editing for real until July 2007. I've now racked up over 6000 edits and I'm on Wikipedia most days. My main project is categorising articles which have no categories at present, which is cool because I get to read lots of new articles, identify articles I want to work on and tag articles for attention or deletion if necessary. I also try to participate in Article for deletion debates and check Newbie contributions and Recent changes from IP addresses. I try to read policy or noticeboard pages like the administrator intervention noticeboard to understand better Wikipedia's policies and guidelines and get a handle on what's going on at WP. I'm beginning to understand the image policy (possibly...) and will hopefully be adding some photos I've taken for articles. If I get stuff wrong (and I will) or you just want a word, come talk to me. (Additionally, if I've screwed up the design of the page or it's giving you accessibility problems, let me know and I'll try to fix it.)

The poor old ostrich died for nothing.
