Hi there! I'm flaterred that you think me an important enough editor to visit my user page. Or perhaps you're thinking what is this person thinking?!?! either way, I invite you to drop me a line--I love getting messages! My main activities on Wikipedia are...
- 1. Working on the Shakespeare Wikiproject collaboration. It's one of the best ways to apply my knowledge to Wikipedia. I sort of drop out when it comes to all those nitpicky FA and GA things--I'm no good at nitpicking.
- 2.Editing random articles!
- 3.Welcoming new users. A very simple and easy way to be kind, and it gets your edit count up very fast. ;-)
Ideas for future projects (OR: things I should be doing)
[edit]One down, six to go!
- Clean up and add to Lord of the Flies literary critism section. I don't think I'll ever get around to creating a sub-page for this purpose. Some day, when I have a lot of time on my hands, I think I'll finally finish my notes!
Help with expansion of themes section in Hamlet .Done
- Start Beatrice (Shakespeare) article.
- Bring Ariel (Shakespeare) to GA status.
- Expand Sonnet 36.
- Bring Elizabeth Keckly to GA status.
- Help bring A Midsummer Night's Dream to GA status.
Userboxen
[edit]I am usually I very Zen person. My decorating style might be described as "less is more" (with the exception of lime green paint). However, when it comes to userboxen, I say...more is more!! Ps. Thanks to D.M.N. for fixing my userboxen!!

Ptychochromis insolitus, also known as the Mangarahara cichlid, is a species of cichlid, a fish in the family Cichlidae. Endemic to certain river systems in northern Madagascar, it can reach a length of 26 centimetres (10 inches) and features long tooth- or comb-like structures known as cteni on many of its scales. This unusual feature contributed to the decision to use the species name insolitus when the fish was first described as a new species in 2006. It is classified as a critically endangered animal, being threatened by habitat loss and competition from introduced species; after the last known female was killed during a breeding attempt, its conservation received significant international attention as London Zoo launched a media campaign to identify any remaining individuals. A remnant population was discovered in 2013, and breeding programs in Madagascar and at Toronto Zoo have resulted in thousands of successful hatchlings. This P. insolitus fish was photographed in Wilhelma, a botanical garden in Stuttgart, Germany.Photograph credit: H. Zell
