I am nominating myself, because, well, I like me. I have been a " wikipedian" for only a short time, but it's been glorious. I think there is a great deal to be done in terms of getting the word out about how great a resource wikipedia can be. I use it everyday to check facts, and to beat people in stupid trivia. I'm sure if I were still in school, that I'd use it for educational research as well. One key issue to me is that of silly censorship. Yes, you may have been here longer than me, but this is an open community of people working for the same goal. Let's keep it this way. So grab a pitch fork and a torch and let's hit the streets together and burn whatever monsters there are that might be hampering the cause and progress of Wikipedia!
