Hello! I do not know how you ended up on my page, as I am quite insignificant, but welcome anyway!

I lurked for many a workless weekend, combing through articles for missing spaces and comma splices, in the shadows of anonymity. Now, I have upgraded to a more...visible...named...sort of anonymity. To do the exact same thing that I was doing under the name of an IP address. I may take occasional breaks, but I'll likely come back whenever I have the time.

Here is a summary of my habits on Wikipedia:

  1. My edits almost always involve correcting grammatical/formatting errors (e.g. inserting a single period/full stop or capitalizing a single letter) both extremely minor and glaringly obvious. I find it far more amusing than any vandalism possible. Thus, you may not be able to find a pattern in the articles I choose to edit. They may actually be random.
  2. My (not so) new hobby is fixing and filling out references (mostly by hand – I'm no good with most citation tools, but ProveIt and CiteGen are simple enough even for me {{smiley|:P}}).
  3. My edit summaries used to be rambling and excessive when present. Now they are brief to the point of obfuscation. I have not yet found a style guide for those, though I have found a helpful legend (that I still managed to misuse). If somebody could point one out, that would be a pleasant surprise.
  4. Thank you to those who help correct my mistakes; I am prone to making particularly ridiculous ones. I'm always open to advice as well as the occasional trout or two if I've done something wrong.

I have noticed that there are many usernames that are similar to mine. My signature reads "Me, Myself & I", but I am not, in fact, {{noping|Me, Myself & I}}. Nor am I {{noping|Me, Myself and I}}. Nor am I any number of "Me, Myself..."s. I've added a peace sign to my signature to avoid potential confusion.

(Full disclosure: one of those accounts is my old account, which I have abandoned with no redirect for convoluted reasons of password-forgetting-then-retrieving and privacy. I cannot account for all the edits made under IP addresses I share with others; none of them have an account to my knowledge, though I have tried to turn a few into editors!)

Thank you for reading. Have a nice day.{{smiley|:)}}
