[edit] Stuff about me
I'm a sysadmin, am married to Millard73 and live in Knoxville, Tennessee. After a long period of lurking and anonymously editing, I became a registered user on January 3, 2005.
[edit] Wikiphilosophy and Wikinterests
As indicated by the lovely Wikifeelings userboxes over to the right, I'm inclined to inclusionism and eventualism. That doesn't mean I'm never in favor of deletion, or that I don't think fixing badly-written articles quickly is important... in fact, I spend a lot of my time watching recent changes for vandalism, tagging new pages for speedy deletion if they meet WP:CSD, and making small edits to improve the grammar, spelling, and style of pages. I try hard to have fun and avoid biting the newbies in the process -- if you catch me nibbling on one, please smack me with a trout on my talk page. I check AfD regularly, and try to stand up for articles that are in danger of deletion when I think the subject is notable, even if the current article needs a lot of work -- I'd much rather see a decent stub or appropriate redirect than no article at all if a topic is in any way possibly encyclopedic. My main editing interest is really anything that needs a lot of work, but I'm slightly more likely to do major work on pages in the areas indicated by the Interests stack of userboxes. I only put one TV box in there for now -- I could make a whole page of them, but I'll resist.
