Reduced activity

I have just started a new job, which seems certain to leave me with a lot less time to skive off and edit on Wikipedia when I should be working. On top of that, I'm planning to attempt NaNoWriMo in November, consuming most of my free time outside of work. So, I don't expect to be anywhere near as active on Wikipedia until December. —Stormie 22:41, Oct 27, 2004 (UTC)

Hi, my name's David. I'm a computer programmer and occasional goth DJ from Sydney, Australia. I live in Newtown. I studied computer science at Macquarie University. I am a sad geek and have a Livejournal.

Most of my Wikipedia activity is in little bites of time at work, so you're much more likely to find me doing a bit of copy-editing, disambiguating, adding articles to lists, busy-work like that, than you are to find me writing actual articles. :-)

However, I am pleased to announce that on May 17, 2004 I made my 1,000th edit, and it was a real new article, not a little bit of copy-editing. See Charles Bathurst, 1st Viscount Bledisloe.

On June 27, 2004 I made my 2,000th edit, another real new article, and again related to rugby union in New Zealand. See Ranfurly Shield.

On July 28, 2004, RickK nominated me for adminship, and I was honoured to accept. I received 31 supporting votes and none opposing, and on August 5, I was appointed to the position of Administrator.

On August 10, 2004 I made my 3,000th edit—this time it wasn't a glorious new article, but me using my new Admin powers to hit the rollback button on an anon who had blanked a bunch of content out of Lung cancer.

I didn't actually notice my 4,000th edit going by, but it looks like it happened somewhere around about September 21, 2004. Might have been my rewrite of Antônio Parreiras.

Articles I have started or made (imho) significant contributions to

..and all the Super 12 rugby union teams: see Category:Super 12 teams

I was also pleased to see Ian McKellen recently featured on the front page. Although my contributions to that article have only been minor cleanup stuff and link tweaking, I did recognise a sentence or two that I had worked on. Front page, yay!
