Me

DOB: June 6, 1985 the day that the grave of one Wolfgang Gerhard is exhumed in Embu, Brazil; the remains found are later proven to be those of Josef Mengele, Auschwitz' "Angel of Death". Mengele is thought to have drowned while swimming in February 1979.
Location: New Zealand; Christchurch
Occupation: Student at the University of Canterbury studying for a B.Sc. in Astronomy
I speak: New Zealand English
How long I've been here: My earliest logged in edit was on November 7, 2003 at 13:56. I edited the Yang Liwei article (Wow I've been here over a year)
Previous Identity: I used to be known around these parts as Enceladus (this link just takes you back to this page). I've put in a request for a moving all my contributions to this username but it could take a couple of months before that happens. I had about 1100 edits on that username. On my current username I have at least 3149 edits (that figure really isn't that helpful as I have been image tagging which means that I get lots of edits for doing very little).
Education: The Primary school I attended was Kew School - I wonder what the odds of it surviving Votes for Deletion twice are?
Belief System: I believe in the Invisible Pink Unicorn

I am a member of the Association of Wikipedians Who Dislike Making Broad Judgements About the Worthiness of a General Category of Article, and Who Are In Favor of the Deletion of Some Particularly Bad Articles, but That Doesn't Mean They are Deletionist

Interests at Misplaced Pages

Well as you can see from the articles above that I've worked on, I'm mainly interested in spaceflight, usually American as there is alot of information on these spaceflights. Alot of the time though I spend just browsing and correcting issues as I see them. I'm spending alot of time tagging images at the moment as well. Remember to be bold when editing anything that I've written. Chances are that I've made some terrible spelling mistake (for the life of me I can never spell separate right) or some grammatical error (wrong tense usually).

I think that "If you do not want your writing to be edited mercilessly and redistributed at will, do not submit it" should be posted on every new users page. There seems to be some people who think that they own articles.

My goal in life is to become famous enough to warrant an entry of my own in the main namespace of Misplaced Pages. Hopefully it will be Jeffrey Simpson (astronomer) not Jeffrey Simpson (murderer)

Vandalism

I've lost count of how many times this page has been vandalised. Some of the more weird ones have been:

• "Aged 2 (even though I look gay!)"
• "Evil Monkey was not accepted on hotornot.com, as he does not look over 18, he was predicted to be 12! OMG w00t lol wat a nob."
• "I am a faggot with no life so I take stupid photos of myself and post them on wikipedia. i jack off all day and suck at life."
• "I am ugly and need not a life, but a death"
• "nob!"
• An ASCII Monkey
• Someone with an odd obsession with "daiper sex"
• On a talk page I was called a "childish brat"
