I do a lot around here, including copyediting articles, New pages patrol, Articles for Creation, and Copyright cleanup (at CCI). I try to get bigger projects going, but always get sidetracked when duty calls.

I am also active on Commons, where I am a license reviewer and work with finding images and SVGs.

Were this user to act in a foolish, trollish, or dickish way, they are open to being slapped with a large trout.

Some stuff I've done

Did yeeno ...

... that the main menu for the 2006 video game Curious George looked so simple that a reviewer thought he had an unfinished version of the game?
... that the Star Wars Rebels episode "Twin Suns" took inspiration from the 1954 Akira Kurosawa film Seven Samurai?

... that sports broadcaster Gene Principe had to choose between covering his hometown team at the 2006 NHL playoffs and fulfilling his dream of covering the Italian team at the 2006 FIFA World Cup?
- ... that Canadian ice hockey broadcaster Gene Principe was once handcuffed during a live broadcast for exceeding the "legal limit for puns" and sent to the "pun-itentiary"? (the funnier hook that sadly never made it)
