Hey, I'm User:Bobby Cohn. If you need to get in touch with me, my preferred method of contact is on my talk page. If you came here for an inquiry about a specific article, I invite you to start a discussion on that article's talk page, and invite me to discuss on my talk page.
I try and keep an eye on my watchlist but there's a lot in there. If you're waiting for a response from me on a project page and I've been active elsewhere on Wikipedia, consider leaving a message on my talk page politely reminding me and point to the discussion. Worst case scenario, I'll drop you a {{Read}} reply.
About me
editI enjoy editing pages on a broad range of microbiology topics, contributing to topics that interest me while I'm Wiki-crastinating, and participating in discussions on talk pages about current events or topics in the news. I've also been seen patrolling the recent changes page for unnecessary but good faith edits or vandalism from IP address. I also like adding infoboxes to pages hot-off-the-presses from Articles for creation and New pages patrol. In the future, I'd love to begin adding high quality photos to the Commons.
I think biting the newbies is one of the worst things we can do as a project; we should assist future long-term editors for the benefit of the project. I'm a big believer in the assume good faith policy. I also think that vandals are obviously not here to improve the project and should be smitten [wikt] down on sight.
Ongoing work

Editing can be a tireless and thankless job. Sometimes I'll edit for the fun of it. Sometimes I'll really put my mind to a topic, and want to see an article flourish. If I list an article here, it's most likely because I'd like to come back to it and continue to improve it.
Some articles I am working on in the draft space
editArticles I'd like to expand or bring into GA standing:
edit- Bon Echo Provincial Park
- Bois Blanc Island (Ontario)
- Nitrification
- Sterilization (microbiology)
- Paul Rand
Discussions that I've taken part in and am keeping an eye on:
editOther work
editDid you know ...
edit- ... that when delivering his speech "The boys of Pointe du Hoc" on the 40th anniversary of the Normandy landings, Ronald Reagan addressed 62 veteran service members present on D-Day? (6 August 2024)
- ... that Manhood was Josh Hawley's second book to be published by Regnery, after he was dropped by Simon & Schuster for his support of attempts to overturn the 2020 United States presidential election? (7 November 2024)
Previous articles
editI've previously written articles on a variety of topics. I have written some articles from scratch and I have greatly improved and expanded others from a previous state. I also take pride in guiding new editors that have created their first Articles for Creation draft and adapting their work and preparing it for the mainspace, if I think the work shows promise or the subject is particularly notable. I've done that in a few instances shown here.
- Manhood: The Masculine Virtues America Needs
- The boys of Pointe du Hoc
- Nitrification
- Parental rights movement
- Elvis Presley single
- Fishes (The Bear)
- Geo Barents
- She (pronoun)
- The Bear (The Bear)
- 2023 Calgary E. coli outbreak
- DESeq2
- John Stull (scientist)
- John J. Fisher Jr.
- Avena insularis
- Aegilops sharonensis
- George Clyde Hale
- Anirban Chakraborti
- Anne Hallward
Useful links
editI look for these regularly. It's helpful for me to have a quick link here when guiding new editors to them. If you also find them useful, then that's awesome.
