From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hey! My name is Scott. You'll mainly find me doing copyedits and housekeeping here and there.

I have a B.Sc. in computer science. Computery topics which pique my interest include programming languages, embedded and system programming (using C and C++ mainly, though I'm learning Rust), and sometimes web development (using JavaScript and React/Svelte). I am also a contributor on OpenStreetMap.

I hold no reservations about editing any article if it means bringing more consistency to the encyclopedia as a whole, so my contribution history might be a bit of a mixed bag, and it probably doesn't reflect my topics of interest too well.

Preferring American English, I like to use one L in "canceled", zero Us in "color", "-ize" over "-ise", and I appreciate the serial comma. However, I do not like the American style of putting terminal punctuation marks inside inline quotations. When editing articles, though, I continue the existing style of the article even if it means cancelling or colourising my learned habits.

If you disagree with an edit I made, feel free to start up a discussion on a talk page somewhere. If I just plain got something wrong, please revert me. I value self-improvement, so a quick explanation would be appreciated so I can learn from my mistakes. Thanks!
