{{Veteran Editor III}}


I'm currently retired, with no plans to come back on any consistent basis. My main focus was articles relating to [[professional wrestling]] and I have completely lost interest in it. I no longer watch or follow it to any extent. You can find me active at the [http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/ Yu-Gi-Oh! wiki], where I am an administrator under the screename "Cheesedude" and [[TV Tropes]] as "Gavyn Sykes". I may pop up from time to time, reverting vandalism on a page I'm reading, but nothing beyond that.
I'm a nineteen year old full time college student, currently majoring in Psychology at a Community College, saving money to pay for a transfer at a later date.

I am an active contributer to [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling|Wikiproject Professional Wrestling]]. I don't make many large contributions, I deal mostly with reverting vandalism, fixing links and avoiding redirects and deleting week-by-weeks. I sporadically edit other articles that I read, should I come across any errors.

If you need to leave me a message, feel free to do so on my talk page. I ask that you type clearly, concisely and correctly, at least as much as possible. Posts of "ZOMG ur edat is rung" and things of that sort of silly nature will be ignored altogether. I support good grammar usage, but I'm not grammar master myself, so excuse any mistakes.

On many other sites ([[GameFAQs]] and [[Kingdom of Loathing]] example) my screen name is cheesedude. Also, for the record, I am aware how to better organize my userboxes, but I simply like them to look a bit disorganized to reflect how unorganized I am in real life. Please don't offer me a custom signature, I do not want one, since I'm weird.

I mostly edit on [[Mozilla Firefox|Firefox]], and use [[WP:TW|Twinkle]] to revert a lot of things. I now have rollback rights as well, so this enables me to revert vandalism quickly when I use Internet explorer at the college campus or on an older computer. Incidentally, I may be the only editor in history to be granted [[User talk:Gavyn Sykes/Archive 3#Rollback|rollback rights]] prior to actually learning how [[User talk:Gavyn Sykes/Archive 3#Hey|cite]] a source.

I must have been hungry, eh?

*To clarify, in the above edit, check the edit summary.

Perhaps the most hilarious vandalism in history:

*Don't get me wrong, I despise vandals (check below) but I do enjoy it when they have a sense of humor. I am by no means am encouraging people to vandalize pages so they are humorous. But you must find the above edit funny. Or not.

This user is no longer active on Wikipedia.
This editor is a

Silver Editor Star.

I'm currently retired, with no plans to come back on any consistent basis. My main focus was articles relating to professional wrestling and I have completely lost interest in it. I no longer watch or follow it to any extent. You can find me active at the Yu-Gi-Oh! wiki, where I am an administrator under the screename "Cheesedude" and TV Tropes as "Gavyn Sykes". I may pop up from time to time, reverting vandalism on a page I'm reading, but nothing beyond that.
