My real name is Michael. I live near Seattle, Washington in the US.
I began editing Wikipedia in the summer of 2005. Although I mostly just do vandal patrol and minor edits, I do get excited about some articles and really take them on. I sometimes add my own images to articles. I have a strong allergy to popular culture sections that infest many articles, and I have deleted a few.
Some idea of my interests may be seen from the sections below.
Some pages I have started, or brought from stubs to real articles
