Autobiography
Jessica "Jess" Carter (born September 16, 1981) was born in Edinburgh, moved to Lancaster in 2001, then to Preston in 2004 and moved back to Edinburgh in 2019, where she makes her living as a recruitment consultant. The origins of her username - given to her in late 2005 - are simple: the "ditzy" bit is due to her ditzy nature. The "Nizzy" bit is due to the Nizlopi No1 JCB Song, which are the same as her initals, just in a different order.
Amongst her hobbies are the Eurovision Song Contest, music - most types, but not classical, easy listening or country - football, chocolate and having sex. As a result of at least two of the hobbies, you'll often see her hanging around music or (more likely) football articles - doing little things like typos, formatting errors, that sort of thing.
Notice any screw-ups (typos, formatting errors etc)? Then please change it - just don't vandalise it because I allow you to edit the page. If there's any gaps in the table below, that's because they're meant to be there. If you notice a string of changes on the same page made by me, that's not vandalism: that's because I've noticed something to change after clicking "Save page". Or, in the case of the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League article, I was doing it bit by bit (especially Group H's table).
For myself
- /work in progress (for when I have a few spare minutes)
- Note to self - The following reasons are why you shouldn't edit after you've seen Scotland win at Hampden Park: [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Main_Page&diff=next&oldid=281169637], [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Main_Page&diff=next&oldid=281169743] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Main_Page&diff=next&oldid=281169965]. ("Second deletion"? What the f*** were you thinking of, Jess?)Yes, I do talk to myself at times. I sometimes wish that I was a Gemini, so that I could have an excuse.

This is for things I've seen around Wikipedia that I've found funny
- /Huddershouse Town
- [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ham&oldid=151024292 When NOT to prod an article]
- A kid compares his 5-a-side football team's AfD to the article on God.
- For ten months, Arlesey Town F.C. spent the 2005-06 season [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Arlesey_Town_F.C.&diff=118222086&oldid=118221723 in League Two].
- The person who created a (since deleted) topic forgot that s/he was the one who created it.
- Someone who takes part in a Michael Jackson-related AfD quotes Beat It [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Michael_Jackson_Death_Hoax&diff=prev&oldid=302436793 for the rationale]. (I was gonna give them a barnstar, but I was beaten to it.)
: To follow this up, someone quoted two Britney Spears songs in an AfD [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/TBA_%28Britney_Spears_album%29&diff=prev&oldid=384245989 in relation to her].
- I was in a foul mood today (3 August 2009). I stumbled across [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gordon_Burns_%28television%29&diff=prev&oldid=87640938 this]. I was no longer in that foul mood.
- I'm an easy girl to please. Hence why I found [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:2009%E2%80%9310_UEFA_Europa_League&diff=307964695&oldid=307953543 this comment] amusing.
- Vandal comes onto Wikipedia to do some vandalism. Vandal finds that page is locked. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3aMichael_Jordan&diff=259194361&oldid=257585799 Vandal complains about it.]
- [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection&diff=327738233&oldid=327736815 Well, at least they were honest.] (Unsurprisingly, the request was [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection&diff=next&oldid=327738233 turned down].)
- Is every single day in March not notable? [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/March_1 Apparently.]
- In December 2008, someone decided to say that 2009 "[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2009&diff=257767804&oldid=257749146 was expected to be a common year]". (The same person later [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2009&diff=next&oldid=257772168 added a "citation needed" for the same claim].)
- I thought I was blunt. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fat&diff=138256166&oldid=138165932 I was wrong.]
- Nah, I don't think we need this article. Or this one.He was that Georgian luger who died the day the 2010 Winter Olympics began. Or even this one. These two are also unnecessary.Admittedly, the latter was before they spread across England.
- In August 2007, someone accidentally deleted part of German shot putter [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nadine_Kleinert&oldid=154120430 Nadine Kleinert's article]. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nadine_Kleinert&direction=next&oldid=232453299 No-one fixes the table] until she took part in the Beijing Olympics.
- [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&diff=prev&oldid=89918577 This piece] of
shitvandalism happened in November 2006. Nobody noticed it until [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&diff=prev&oldid=338824871 January 2010]. - Apparently, [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Finger&diff=prev&oldid=166357603 everything needs a citation]. Even when we're literally attached to them.
- In February 2013, it turned out Findus beef lasagnas were made from horsemeat. So somebody put [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Findus&direction=prev&oldid=537129261 a picture of two horses] on their page.
- She may have sold 150 million records, but Britney Spears' [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Britney_Spears&oldid=1166208877 page was PRODded as a "vanity page"].
