I've been an administrator since 2005. I'm also [[commons:User:Omegatron|active]] on [[Wikimedia Commons]] and have lesser-used accounts on other wikis.

My userpage has grown and grown over the years, and became an unwieldy mess of content. So I blanked it and am trying to move [[User:Omegatron/old user page|everything]] into subpages to try to quell the sprawling empire of words:

I am an audio electronics engineer. I started editing Wikipedia in 2003, participating heavily and becoming an admin in 2005, then stopped editing in 2008 because people are frustrating, then started again a bit in 2017, but I'm not going to get as invested as I used to. See also my account on Wikimedia Commons, and lesser-used accounts on other wikis.
