What I do here
editI like checking out WP:FC occasionally, and I check my watchlist many many times throughout the day. I patrol for vandalism and occasionally vote of AfD's. I should probably do both of those things more often, but lately I've been distracted by WP:GL and rewriting the Malamute page here. In delving into the Malamute page, I also tend to wander into other dog breed articles (especially the Spitze) to do smaller changes.
The tools of my "Wikipedia trade" include WP:POP, WP:LAVT, Google, books, Inkscape, and The Gimp.
I have been adopted by User:(aeropagitica) through Wikipedia:Adopt-a-User. He has been a great help, and I definitely recommend new users interested in learning the proper way to do things to get themselves adopted.

editWhat I'd like to do
editOnce I've finished the Malamute article, which is going very slowly, I'd like to definitely participate in more AfD's, and possibly get into other types of XfD's. I want to get more involved in image things, such as moving eligible ones to Commons. Some wikiprojects that seem interesting to get involved in later are WP:LoCE and WP:WPPDP.

When to use subpages
A subpage is a page that is stored "under" another page, and includes the parent page's name in its title, followed by "/" and the subpage's name. For example, User:Eloquence/Favorite Wikipedia quotes. When you visit a subpage, you will see a backlink (aka breadcrumb) near the top of the page back to the parent page. Subpages can be useful for organizing and archiving project content, and for creating workspace under a user account. On a parent page, you can create a link to one of its subpages by typing Articles don't have subpages. That is, subpages are not enabled in the article namespace, because many articles might qualify as subtopics of more than one topic. Instead, follow article naming conventions and include links to related subjects in the text. For the subtopic structure of subjects, see Portal:Contents/Outlines. – – Read more: To add this auto-randomizing template to your user page, use {{totd-random}}
