Greetings!
Over my time on Wikipedia, I have switched jobs a bit. Initially, I was more of a vandal hunter. While I still do that, I have spent more time in the last year or so doing article maintenance and referencing.

I am generally bold in doing so, and sometimes, I may accidentally revert an edit that was legit. Please accept my apologies in advance. Leave a message on my Talk Page so that I can get back to you and apologize more personally.

Links I commonly use:

• Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools/Assessment#Assessment summaries
• WP:WPSCHOOLS/AL
• WP:WPSCHOOLS/AG#WNTI
• Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools/Assessment#Quality scale
• WP:BCLASS
• List of Colors

I am not one to go hunting for awards, but I am grateful to any editor who takes time to say something nice about my work. This gallery isn't so much about what I have done as it is about saying "thank you" to those editors.

On 26 September, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article 1971 Major League Baseball All-Star Game, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.
