Hello! I'm not terribly active anymore, but I do semi-regularly check my watchlist and perform minor edits as I encounter them across Wikipedia. I used to be quite the jerk editor, but have since mellowed out and nowadays just grit my teeth with vandals and trolls. Many of the articles below in my "researching" list haven't recieved much attention in years -- perhaps someday I'll get back to them.
