This user as a person

edit

Location: Milton Keynes, United Kingdom

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Occupation: Student

I'm currently a university student studying maths; nothing special. My interests are videogames, Totalitarianism, sleep, and martial arts.

The Vidiot

edit

My favourite videogames are in the main part first person shooters and real-time strategy (even though I'm absolutely rubbish at RTS), although any excellent game is equally likely to captivate me. The only abloute best sit among my userboxes. My current hooks are RuneScape and Final Fantasy XII. My RuneScape character runs by this same name.

The Maths Boff

edit

I'm currently studying mathematics at the University of Reading. Significant achievements include achieving a gold certificate in every entry in the UKMT maths challenge, and quilification for the Kangaroo paper in 2003, and British Mathematical Olympiad round 1 in 2006 and 2007.

This user's work

edit

In general

edit

There is no particular article or content that I'm looking to add or improve. As you can see from my userboxes, I consider myself a wikignome I find myself mostly reverting vandalism and cleaning up pages. The non-vandal related part of my cleaning up seems to surround messy grammar.
The main reason for signing up was actually because I found the occasional typo making pages look pretty naff and thought how handy I could be in fixing it up, but much of a pain that it was when I was on a school computer (Which, of couse, was blocked).

Top tips for any wikipedian

edit

Be bold

edit

Many users on wikipedia say this and so will I: if you think something need changing on Wikipedia, then change it! You won't destroy anything if you mess up; thousands of other users can fix any problems you leave behind. If you're really scared of what's about to happen, then at least post something on the talk page.

Use the preview

It took me around 5 edits to get spoiler tags into one article correctly. This would not have happened had I previewed my edits...
