I'm a Wikipedia administrator, IRC operator, auxiliary MediaWiki developer, part-time article editor, and generally fun guy. Wikipedia stuff You can find lots of neato stuff that somehow involve me here. If you're interested in stuff on Meta, such as Wikimania 2006 (which I am and will be a.) participating, b.) volunteering, and possibly c.) presenting), then go to my Meta user page. Administrative-related I have been a administrator since 06 June, 2005. You may find my RFA (which passed 45/4/1) here. Additionally, I ran for bureaucrat in late August 2005 but did not pass (22/13/10). I do have intentions of running for bureaucrat again, but that won't be until March 2006. A note regarding Requests for adminship: I, along with a number of other administrators and editors, are of the school of thought that while it served its purpose well for a long time, it is now obsolete (or at least very broken). I would like to hear your thoughts on the matter as well. If you're interested in my administrative activites, I invite you to visit the following links: User block log Page protection log Page deletion log Editing-related That's why we're here in the first place! I personally think that we need more editors and less people like myself ( ;-) ) lest we lose a balanced sight of Wikipedia's purpose. All hope is not lost for me, however. I am the driving force behind the vast majority of the Civil Air Patrol article. I am very proud of this article for several reasons: not only is it some of my best work, it is also a featured article. I am [slowly] working on bringing another article up to Featured status: fencing. If you are interested in seeing my editing-related activities, I invite you to visit the following links: My contributions File upload log Page move log IRC-related I normally lurk around on Freenode, which coincidentally is where Wikipedia has it's IRC channel. I am a channel operator, so if you need help or if someone is harassing you, do not hesitate to ask for help.

This decision was permitted by the Arbitration Committee and approved by Jimbo Wales. The Mentorship Committee was formed with the intent of monitoring these users for a year. I am one of the founding members of this committee. As of right now, both JarlaxleArtemis and MARMOT appear to be making progress as productive editors. Edit this user page Seriously! Do stuff to it... make it pretty, make it amazing. Just don't be a jerk and vandalize it, because I know that over twenty editors have this page on their watchlists. But.. have fun otherwise!
