If I weren't lazy, I might contribute useful stuff to this encyclopedia. As of now, I just look at recent changes and revert people's hilarious vandalism. I enjoy finding edits that people painstakingly vandalized, and then reverting them immediately so that their efforts were wasted. I also like finding people who have long histories of messing up articles, and then reverting all of their contributions to make their hard work go away. Basically, I harness my tendency to be an asshole and use it to screw with people who deserve it. I've only been at this since February of '05, and maybe some day I will use whatever knowledge I have to write articles or something. So here are things I do know some stuff about:

Things I know something about

Spelling

I can't spell, so I won't be doing much spell copyediting. I wish Wikipedia had a spell checker built in, so that you could see spelling errors when you preview an edit. Maybe it does, and I'm just not aware of it. I realize that a spell checker probably requires the presence of a large word bank against which to check spelling, but if OpenOffice can do it, why can't Wikipedia?

My biases

It should be noted that I am biased against certain things, as most people probably are. I will list my biases here in the interest of full disclosure:
