User:Tardis

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My first contribution, before having a username, was to merge two articles on the Vulcan nerve pinch in the summer of 2004. Nowadays I answer questions on the Science, Math, and Computing Reference Desks, and otherwise copyedit and occasionally patrol Recent Changes. I am familiar, of course, with Doctor Who, but not nearly so much as the name implies.

I am hoping to usurp the name Tardis at commons, wikipedia-ko, wikipedia-sv, and wikipedia-zh.
