Hi. Way back in 2007 I figured I'd set up an ID in order to start contributing by creating articles and nominating for afd, and not just editing and prod-ing. Previously I had been contributing by a number of different IP addresses (work, home, etc.) [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Contributions&target=74.73.176.167] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Contributions&target=68.173.33.81] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Contributions&target=68.173.32.171] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Contributions&target=68.173.35.116] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Contributions&target=66.108.49.158] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Contributions&target=141.157.207.101] That's not to say I am proud of all of those contributions; I even got a ban warning on one of them when I went a little crazy with prodding.
If you want to see all of my contributions since then, click [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Contributions/UnitedStatesian here], and for my deleted contributions, Admins can click [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:DeletedContributions/UnitedStatesian here]. As far as page creations, most pages I create are in the U.S. business and economics space, but I range outside that area occasionally.

These are the ones I started, after I started keeping track but before I implemented the automated User:UnitedStatesian/CSD log and User:UnitedStatesian/PROD log
If you are upset to find an article here and red, don't be offended, an admin had to agree with me.
Many, many others before I started keeping track.
