ONLY 244 DAYS UNTIL WIKIMANIA 2006 BOSTON!! If you are local to Rhode Island and are interested in carpooling, please leave me a message on my talk page.Please take the time to participate in my Wikimania presentation survey!
For me, this picture tells me that there is still hope in the world.
These guys are good
I love to fence.
I hereby give you a curious looking red star for your userpage, for dealing with those Perverted Justice people and getting them to publish your letter clearing up the facts. Mindspillage(spill yours?) 16:54, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
The Working Man's Barnstar
For being an absolutely tiresome contributor to not only Misplaced Pages, but even beyond. The Community is very lucky to have Wikipedians like this guy. HolyRomanEmperor 20:32, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Who I am
My name is Alex Schenck. I'm a Misplaced Pages administrator and bureaucrat, Meta administrator, IRC channel operator, auxiliary MediaWiki developer, part-time article editor, and generally fun guy.
Misplaced Pages stuff
You can find lots of neato stuff that somehow involve me here. If you're interested in stuff on Meta, such as Wikimania 2006 (in which I am and will be a.) participating, b.) volunteering, and possibly c.) presenting), then go to my Meta user page.
Administrative-related
I have been a administrator since 06 June, 2005. You may find my RFA (which passed 45/4/1) here. Additionally, I ran for bureaucrat in late August 2005 but did not pass (22/13/10). However, I ran again in December 2005 and was promoted with a 98.36% support rate (120/2/2).
A note regarding Requests for adminship: I, along with a number of other administrators and editors, are of the school of thought that while it served its purpose well for a long time, it is now obsolete (or at least very broken). I would like to hear your thoughts on the matter as well.
If you're interested in my administrative activities, I invite you to visit the following links:
That's why we're here in the first place! I personally think that we need more editors and less people like myself ( ;-) ) lest we lose a balanced sight of Misplaced Pages's purpose.
All hope is not lost for me, however. I am the driving force behind the vast majority of the Civil Air Patrol article. I am very proud of this article for several reasons: not only is it some of my best work, it is also a featured article. I also heavily participated in bringing Half-Life 2 up to featured article status.
I am working on bringing another article up to Featured status: fencing.
If you are interested in seeing my editing-related activities, I invite you to visit the following links:
I normally lurk around on Freenode, which coincidentally is where Misplaced Pages has its IRC channel. I am a channel operator, so if you need help or if someone is harassing you, do not hesitate to ask for help.
In November of 2005, I decided to take a rather bold action by allowing two banned editors, JarlaxleArtemis and MARMOT, to be allowed back into the community. This decision was permitted by the Arbitration Committee and approved by Jimbo Wales. The Mentorship Committee was formed with the intent of monitoring these users for a year. I am one of the founding members of this committee.
As of right now, JarlaxleArtemis appears to be making progress as aproductive editor. MARMOT, however, was reblocked by Curps in January.
Edit this user page
Seriously! Do stuff to it... make it pretty, make it amazing. Just don't be a jerk and vandalize it, because I know that over twenty editors have this page on their watchlists. But... have fun otherwise!
I award you this Kindness Barnstar for being Bold in efforts of Kindness, in building bridges of Peace with your personal mentorship efforts of past troubled editors. Giovanni33 16:37, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
