Hello!

Hello, thank you for your email.

I started editing Wikipedia way back in 2010, back when I was still pretty much a kid. I didn't really do too much though, aside from a few sporadic edits here and there. It wasn't until October 2013 (And yes, to me it has apparently been that long...) when I started to actually make a substantial number of edits, mostly around reverting vandalism. My glory year was 2014, when I became obsessed with Huggle 2 and made countless edits, making the vandals tremble in their seats!

Sometime in 2014 I became active on WP:CHU/S, serving as a clerk there. I kept clerking that page alongside my vandal fighting until 2015, when I successfully ran for global renamer. Since then I have been active in that front, processing username change requests. I still did a lot of vandal fighting, but as time went on I made less and less edits in that field.

At the end of 2016 I ran for RFA, and on January 7, 2017, I passed and became an administrator (What a way to usher in the new year indeed!). Today real life has sucked a lot of time and interest away from Wikipedia, although I still come on here on a regular basis. I still process username change requests (Like yours) and I still enjoy vandal fighting once in a while. The backlogs at AIV never stay cleared for very long, and I don't have as much time in real life to battle vandalism as I did in 2014. However, I feel that I have matured greatly from my teenaged years, but I firmly believe that one never stops growing up and one never stops maturing, so I wouldn't say I'm at the peak yet. Wikipedia may not have been as central to my life as it once was, but I still keep it around as a nice hobby to go to.

Anyways, that's a brief blurb about me. If you're looking for something to do, stop by the community portal to see what's up. If you want to do what I did, feel free to stop by the counter-vandalism academy; I do have plans of listing myself as a trainer there someday, but at the moment I have too much on my plate to create my syllabus and my course materials. Still, you can always ask me if you have any questions about patrolling and vandal fighting on my talk page. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 23:53, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
