Hello there! Welcome to my little corner of Wikipedia. Feel free to raise any questions or concerns on my talk page.

I am a WikiOgre, which means that I can go "for long stretches making few or no edits, but for short periods of time and in brief spurts makes large edits, complete rewrites, or even new articles". I might "make minor edits, such as copyediting or vandalism reversion, over the course of everyday perusal". The reason for this lifestyle is simple: I tend to have a busy offline life.

The Copyeditor's Barnstar Thank you for accepting my request at GOCE Mediran ( talk) 10:22, 6 August 2019 (UTC) The Invisible Barnstar Thanks for your participation in the September 2019 GA Backlog drive. Your 2 reviews made a difference. The work of editors like you helped bring down the unreviewed backlog by over 35%. Best, Barkeep49 ( talk) 18:02, 16 October 2019 (UTC) 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) has given you a Dobos torte to enjoy! Seven layers of fun because you deserve it. To give a Dobos torte and spread the WikiLove, just place {{ subst:Dobos Torte}} on someone else's talkpage, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. On 21 December 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Sun Yang, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Sun Yang (pictured) is the first swimmer in history to win Olympic gold medals in the 200-, 400-, and 1500-metre freestyle events? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Sun Yang. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, Sun Yang), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. The Teamwork Barnstar On behalf of the Guild of Copy Editors, I hereby award The Teamwork Barnstar to Bobbychan193 for initiating discussions which resulted in the creation of YiFeiBot to archive our Requests page, liaising between programmer Zhuyifei1999 and the GOCE throughout the approval process and trials. Your thoughtfulness helped make for a painless changeover, and is very much appreciated! Reidgreg ( talk) 22:52, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
