I started editing in 2004, wrote over a hundred articles, became an ], then appointed to the ] and shortly afterwards the ] in December 2007. In these roles, I have dealt with content writing, content policy, editorial disputes, community matters, privacy and sensitive issues, and a large number of fairly nasty editors and inappropriately-behaving admins. We're here as volunteers to write a reference work, which means fair handling is important. As of 2012 I'm still writing articles. |

I pushed for communal input in the ''Checkuser/Oversight appointment process'', provided the ''first on-wiki analysis'' of Checkuser work, and a load of others.
