__NOTOC__
Mrathel is an editor who loves poetry, literature, and fly fishing. He is willing to help those who are newer than he and desperately needs the help of more-experienced editors. He loves long arguments on talk pages, long discussions on Wikipedia policy, and short walks on the beach. He does dislike personal attacks, but only when they lack humor.
