Please do not edit this page. If you need to leave me a comment, please put it on my talk page.

Ok. So I never know what to put in these things. Luckily, this is a Wiki, so y'all can give me lots of feedback. :)

The Tireless Contributor Barnstar for UtherSRG for his careful and comprehensive work on the Primate category and on animal articles generally. Truly tireless work! Marskell 21:32, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar for UtherSRG for being the only wikipedian to welcome me around :D! Chaos Reaver 13:48, 8 February 2006 (GMT)
The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar for giving me that great welcome and helping me learn a lot of things here on Wikipedia. Thanks to you, I can just go to my talk page and have easy access to all sorts of helpful information. Yay! Onlyabititalian 14:42, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm completely sure you don't remember me, but you were the first to welcome me to Wikipedia 9 years ago (good God) back when I was a snotty little pre-teen. Out of boredom and mild interest I was looking through my very first diffs and saw you were the first, and was really happy to see that you hadn't left the project since you welcomed me a decade ago. I know it was probably a completely unconscious gesture on your part (was Twinkle even around back then?) but I did use those links (primary to do the editorial equivalent of your little kid "helping" you wash your car—well-intentioned, but creating more problems than it's worth). I'm sure none of this matters to you at all, and back then I probably read the message with near-indifference, but your work here... all of our work here... it means something. Anyway, here's a long and circuitous—and very belated—thanks. Here's to nine more. Deadbeef 01:57, 18 January 2015 (UTC)


Mission

[edit]

My mission on Wikipedia comes from a habit I have in places like bookstores. My habit is that when I see something that needs fixing (like books out of order) I fix it.

My current watchlist is over 9000 entries long!

Todo list

[edit]
  1. Fix galago (genus) - needs non-Galago species information removed, and a taxonomic history section created.
  2. Moustached guenon
  3. Black-tufted marmoset - inline refs
  4. Homininae - several refs issues
  5. Sooty_mangabey - split off C. lunulatus
  6. Colobus - split off C caudatus from C. guereza - also update genus with C guereza ssp.
  7. Surili - split off Presbytis comata fredericae as P. fredericae
  8. Wikipedia:Missing_mammal_species needs some attention again.
    1. Silky_anteater needs to be split into 6 new species articles and a genus article

Reminders

[edit]

I really need to make a page of handy things that I keep forgetting how to do, but I keep forgetting to do it.

Multitasking

[edit]

I'm one given to multitasking; I do more than one thing at the same time, such as Wiki while watching TV.

While geocaching, I'll also bird watch. I've decided to keep track of the birds that I've identified. My other watching lists are whales, military vessels, and military aircraft. I also will now be trying to keep track of the primates I've seen in zoos; I don't expect to ever see any in the wild, but I'll keep my fingers crossed!
