My userpage

edit

This is the first real userpage I have created. If you think it could be better, feel free to edit it constructively, and it will truly become a better userpage. And I mean constructively. Vandalism on this page will quickly be reverted.

I have been studying HTML and CSS, so expect a new and better userpage at this location in the future.

About me

edit

I'm in college, and I enjoy math and game shows. I've been on Wikipedia since early 2005, but I created my account April 17, 2007. My first edit was to Double Dare (1976 game show), a vandalism revert. However, I really began editing in earnest in late May 2007.

You can see my current editcount here.

What do I edit?

edit

It varies. Before switching to Linux permanently, I used Huggle to filter recent changes and revert vandalism. It is quite simply the best anti-vandal tool I have ever used. I watch any article I edit, so I continue to watch the articles I revert. Accordingly, my watchlist is currently a potpourri of random articles.

While I await the port of Huggle to Linux (I cannot get the WINE solution to work), I occasionally use WP:STIKI and WP:GLOO to revert vandalism.

However, my expertise, like I said, rests in math and game shows. There are a lot of people out there who know more math than I do, but the game show articles really need a lot of work. I have advanced knowledge of most modern American game shows, especially The Price Is Right and Legends of the Hidden Temple. My work focuses on finding more contemporary reliable sources about those shows, especially from newspapers, to make the articles good or even featured articles.
