About me

I'm your typical American male with an interest in the future. I only speak English. I'm familiar with biological, chemical, and computer sciences with an interest in the humanities and economics.

Wikipedia

My contributions are in a variety of areas:

I often make large contributions(full sections/pages) in a single edit, or I simply add a quote/image. I'm technically competent (OOP including C/C++/C# 2,3,4, PHP, Python 2.7), so I can work with the mediawiki api. I can also be found at the village pump, the reference desk, and on occasion at WP:RX.

I've completed several large batch uploads (1000's of pics).

I am ~375 in Users by bytes uploaded on wikipedia I am ~4000 in Wikipedians by number of edits

Some articles I've contributed to

Cello (web browser) in conjuction w/ User:Mabdul
UdiWWW in conjuction w/ User:Mabdul
(GA) Arena (web browser) w/ User:Mabdul
Nayirah (testimony)
(GA) iLoo
Public Finance Balance of Smoking in the Czech Republic

(FA)Edmund Evans w/ User:Truthkeeper88
(DYK)Fedspeak

Some article I've started that have since been expanded

Some Navboxes

{{Amiga magazines}}, {{Federal Reserve Banks}}, {{Subviral agents}}, {{Oxides}}

Articles that didn't quite make it

Debrahlee Lorenzana...went through a couple of DRVs
"I thought he was kind of a dick yesterday" (though it was "well-worded, sourced text")
Michele Bachmann submissive controversy...eventually it became notable enough
Cement lorry rammed into Leinster House...it simply wasn't there long enough to be notable

Amusing articles: Nude Nuns with Big Guns..theres more...but its no fun if its all here...see WP:Unusual articles

Some minor disputes

Barnstars

Some praise for my efforts:

Extended content

		The Original Barnstar
		For numerous instances of adding citations to reliable sources to info that was not your own, as well as doing the arguably more monotonous job of talk page maintenance and template posting. Terrakyte (talk) 22:13, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

		The Article Rescue Barnstar
		The Rescue Barnstar is awarded to people who rescue articles from deletion. This barnstar is awarded to Smallman12q, for his hard work in rescuing articles, making wikipedia a more detailed site, and helping editors to save their contributions. Thank you. Ikip (talk) 17:22, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

		What a Brilliant Idea Barnstar
		This barnstar is awarded to Smallman12q for his application which will revolutionize the way newsletters are sent. Thank you so much! Ikip ^{Frank Andersson (45 revisions restored):}_{an olympic medallist for f**k's sake} 23:01, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

		The Original Barnstar
		Getting to work with people like you is one of the reasons I contribute to Wikipedia! kilbad (talk) 01:14, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

		The Half Barnstar
		Good work on getting the cleanup listings rolling again. This is a major tool a lot of editors have been using. I'd been talking with one editor, about a month ago, about how we could get this up again. Half a star doesn't really do it justice but you might find another editor that you know, has the other half to make a full star. Tom B (talk) 18:41, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

		The da Vinci Barnstar
		WikiProject North America cufflink cufflink Thank you for co-creating such an useful tool for WikiProjects. On behalf of WikiProject East Asia and WikiProject North America, I hereby present you with this banrstar, complete with a set of cufflinks. Sven Manguard _Talk 01:22, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

Association of Wikipedians Who Dislike Making Broad Judgments About the Worthiness of a General Category of Article, and Who Are in Favor of the Deletion of Some Particularly Bad Articles, but That Doesn't Mean They Are Deletionists

AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTAD

Est omnino difficile iudicare inclusionis meritum cuiusdam rei in encyclopædia cum ratio sciendi quid populi referat incerta sit, sed nihilominus aliquid encyclopædiam dedecet

It is generally difficult to judge the worthiness of a particular topic for inclusion in an encyclopedia considering that there is no certain way to know what interests people, but some topics nevertheless are not fit for an encyclopedia.

This motto reflects the desire of these Wikipedians to be reluctant, but not entirely unwilling, to remove articles from Wikipedia.
