I live in Reading, UK. I am an admin here as well as being one on both Commons and Wikinews.
Now studying post-grad at Oxford University, so I'm not around much, unless I'm on holiday :-).
While my account only dates from December 2004, I've been using Wikipedia since it was Nupedia! Over the years I made occasional IP edits, but never felt the need to make an account nor poke about in the Wikipedia: namespace, so was happily oblivious to all the behind-the-scenes activity.
Come December 2004, I decided to take a more active role, but then was side-tracked somewhat by the fledgling Wikinews. I'm now more active on Wikipedia once again.
Here, I tend not to do much article writing - sorry! I do undertake the occasional expansion, and sometimes overhaul articles (radar, AK-47 and fusion power being examples). The only major article I've ever created is tsunami warning system.
Instead, I'm largely a wikignome, fixing minor mistakes in articles, although I'm doing a bit more Recent Changes patrolling now. I've made this many edits (the total is greatly inflated due to RC patrolling). I try and take an active role in resolving disputes through the various channels.
