I've edited a few pages on Misplaced Pages. Mostly I've been working on articles related to New York, especially the islands and waterways of the eastern Bronx.

Lately, I've also been frequenting Misplaced Pages:Votes for deletion a lot and seem to be turning into quite the Delete monger.

Coming out of the closet

Ok, I know you've all been picking up on the little hints, but have been too polite to say anything. Well, I can't hide it any more. It's really for the best if I admit to the world what I am, and if some people can't handle it, that's their problem.

At first, I thought it was just innocent curiosity, but after a while I realized that I enjoyed it. No, that's not right; enjoy is too shallow a word. It just felt right. It felt natural. It felt like I was being who I was meant to be. I didn't need to be ashamed of it. I realize I may be different from most folks, but I'm comfortable with that. And in recognition of that new-found understanding of who I am, I've decided to join the Association of Deletionist Wikipedians.

There. I've said it. I feel better now.

Re: Woo?

You're right. Wu or Woo is a transcription based on Mandarin. Surnames in Hong Kong and transcripted based on Cantonese. Wu or Woo in Hong Kong do not correspond to the same surname in Chinese characters as Wu as transcripted from Mandarin. — Instantnood 15:53, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)
