Hello to everyone.

I'm an admin so if you have any problems or questions that are vexing leave them on my talk page, if I can't help I'll try and point you in a direction which can.

I often keep an eye on the Recent Changes page, checking recent edits by unknown users or IP edits and correcting as I do so and any major edits with very high (or often very low character counts). (Which is why it may seem like I'm following everyone's recent edits around...I am)

I've been on this wiki for quite some time (not from the start though).

I can get a bit obsessive and methodical and usually start with one page in a line (of novels/audios/TV stories) and then focus on one portion of it, go through a long line and fix just that, and then go and fix the rest. Which is why a lot of pages have a hand or two of mine on them.

I've spent some time working on the infoboxes to alter them so the unused fields collapse (so you can't see the empty fields) and also adding description and usage information to those pages.
