Welcome to my user page! I strive to deliver useful, interesting, and, above all, accurate information to Wikipedia.

About Me

Orginally from the beautiful state of Washington, I now spend the majority of the year in the San Francisco Bay Area, as a college student. I love learning and I strongly believe in the concept behind Wikipedia. In terms of interests - sports, technology, aviation, maritime history, and general pop culture.

My Wikipedia Philosophy

I believe that Wikipedia is a wonderful community of editors all around the world joining forces to promote knowledge and understanding. My experience here has been mostly positive and I look forward to working with my peers to improve Wikipedia whenever I get the chance. That being said, I'm generally a nice person and I'm open to anything from discussing Wikipedia issues to come to a solution to helping users "learn the ropes". At some point when I've gained enough experience, I hope to become an administrator.

In terms of my Wikipedia annoyances, I have very little tolerance for...

• Inane commentary/Wikipedia edits
• Editors that make irrational edits, despite the abundance of concrete evidence against them.
• Those who take advantage of Wikipedia's editing policy to add their own opinions and viewpoints in place of valid information.

I'm a strong believer is discussion, and if there is something you and I disagree on, I will usually start up a conversation in the hopes of coming to a amicable consensus. There will be moments when I get carried away and I post a spicier (read - bolder and strongly worded) reply, however, know that I will refrain from swearing or personal attack. If discussion isn't a viable option, I will usually take some sort of action, usually by issuing a short warning on your talk page. For more brazen or repeat offenders, I won't hesitate to take a tougher stance, either by issuing a tough love/brutally honest warning or by seeking administrative action. I always hope that that the user had a good intent behind their edits and I won't have to resort to the latter, but that isn't always the case, as demonstrated by recent events.
