Suddenly I stopped, unable to breathe. As the image flew overhead, I could see the smooth blue feathers, the arced, pointed wings, and the jet-black head of a peregrine falcon. [...] I had been taken full circle. I was watching a wild peregrine falcon flying freely in a field—outside my own front door.

Old user page

Hello, and welcome to my user page. I'm Mz7, and I am a volunteer editor at Wikipedia. I made my first edits to Wikipedia in 2008 as an anonymous user. I created an account in March 2010, but I really only started actively editing in late 2011. Most of my work here is behind-the-scenes: I use STiki or Huggle to monitor recent edits and revert vandalism. As an administrator, lately I've been helping with various administrative backlogs, such as: intervening against ongoing vandalism evaluating candidates for speedy deletion patrolling sockpuppet investigations Every now and then, I create and develop articles. See here for a list of pages I've created, and below for a list of pages I have significantly contributed to. I have several DYK credits, listed at the bottom of my user page. I help write the monthly administrators' newsletter, which aims to keep administrators up-to-date on various goings-on affecting administrators, such as changes to policies and guidelines and changes to who has access to the administrator toolset. I have three alternative user accounts: User:Mz7 (alt), which I use on non-personal or otherwise insecure computers; User:Mz7 (test account), which I use to see how Wikipedia looks to new users; and User:Mz7 (bot), which I am currently using to update the case table you see at WP:SPI. Articles I have significantly contributed to: Wings for My Flight Vinicius and Tom Feathers: The Evolution of a Natural Miracle Plumhoff v. Rickard McIntyre v.

Thank you (again)! — This lousy T-shirt — (talk) 14:27, 26 February 2014 (UTC) The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar *opens up visor* Hey there. *removes helmet* Sorry, I need to wear this thick, heavy suit for protection when the vandals start attacking us. Anyways, thanks for your barnstar! I am usually on every day, but today I was particularly driven to stay on as ClueBot NG was down earlier. It's down a lot recently, don't you think? School got in the way, but as soon as I had some Internet access that was fast enough, I was fighting vandalism using Twinkle, Huggle, and STiki. Now that the bot is back up, I can hopefully get out of this suit. *unzips zipper* Anyways, I think I'll repay a barnstar with a barnstar, so here it is! Have a great day! ...now if you can give me a hand with this heavy suit...
