Quick disclaimer: this page looks especially awful on mobile, and there's not a whole lot that I'm willing to do about that right now

Hello, and welcome to my humble user page. At least for now I'm going to use this page to experiment with aspects of Wikipedia page design and general article editing/formatting, and as a place to keep a running list of some of my favorite articles. The WikiFauna that I most identify with are the WikiGnomes, as my contributions to the mainspace have so far mostly been small and/or behind the scenes. I use shortdesc helper, Twinkle, and HotCat to assist with the editing process, and I'm currently a member of the Typo Team, WikiProject Stub sorting, and the recent changes patrol, in addition to participating in the short descriptions WikiProject.
