Hello there. I started editing [[Wikipedia]] as an anon in February 2008, and I opened this account the following month.  My specialty on Wikipedia is improving sport-related articles, and you can often find me editing pages on my favorite teams and players. Most of my edits are small formatting fixes, including improved reference formatting and [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]] compliance. You might know me from my history at [[Wikipedia:Featured article candidates]], where I once attempted to review all articles on sports that came along. I haven't been as active there lately, but still have an occasional review or two in me. I like to think that my reviews have helped raise the level of recently promoted sports [[Wikipedia:Featured articles|featured articles]]. 

[[Wikipedia:Featured list candidates|Featured list candidates]] is another place where you can find me. After pushing some lists to [[Wikipedia:Featured lists|featured status]], I became a director of the featured list process in early 2011. I frequently close candidates, and am responsible for choosing lists that appear in the [[WP:Today's featured list|Today's featured list]] section of the Main Page. My skill in writing original prose was not great at first, but has improved over time. I've started numerous articles, some of which have appeared in the [[Wikipedia:Did you know|Did you know]] section on the Main Page. A few articles I've written have reached [[Wikipedia:Good articles|good article]] status, and I was even able to get a couple to become [[Wikipedia:Featured articles|featured]]. I also have a (little-used) account on [[Wikimedia Commons]], which can be found [[commons:User:Giants2008|here]], and clean up vandalism on [[Wikidata]] when I spot it in articles on my watchlist. I'll see you around, and long live [[David Tyree]]!

|style="vertical-align: middle; border-top: 1px solid gray;" | I was truly humbled by the overwhelming community support for the recent proposal to place featured sounds on the main page. The proposal closed on Tuesday with 57 people in support and only 2 in opposition. 

It should take a few weeks for everything to get coded and tested, and once that is done the community will be presented with a mock up to assess on aesthetic appeal. 

Finally, I invite all of you to participate in the featured sounds process itself. Whether you're a performer, an uploader, or just come across a sound file you find top quality, and that meets the featured sound [[Wikipedia:Featured sound criteria|criteria]], you can nominate it at [[Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates]]. Featured sounds is also looking for people to help assess candidates (also at Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates.) 

Thanks again for such a strong showing of support, and I hope to see you at featured sounds in the future.<br>
