Short Bio

• Name: James Howlett
• Gender: Male
• Nationality: American
• Interests: Gay and transgender issues, political positions of U.S. politicians, breaking news

I am currently working on updating and expanding the following articles:

• Mardin wedding party massacre - which was the first article I created and got put on the 'In The News' section. Go me!

I do have health issues that interfere that prevent me from editing as much as I would like to. The health issues also tend to make me take a long time while I'm actually editing, so be kind if I accidentally override your edit. If there is a conflict with the updates, I'm sure we can resolve it.

I like working on creating and expanding LGBT articles, especially ones dealing with transgender issues and people. Leave me a message on my talk page to suggest articles for me to create or expand. I hate articles that don't have all the information it should have, so I have a need to expand them.
