I'm a college student from the U.S. studying Computer Engineering and Computer Science. I've been a Wikipedia user for several years and made a number of edits and articles over that time. I decided to finally create an account rather than using just an IP address, so this is it. My username is not related to the V for Vendetta movie, despite my having made a minor edit to that page :)
Most of my reading/editing is done during what free time I have at work when I'm not busy. Of course, Wikipedia is also one of my main sources when searching for information in my fields of study. Generally, the articles I edit present some interest to me. Some of my interests include:
* Electronic music (techno, trance, etc.) and music production * Tennis * Video games * College sports * Computers * Things of anomalous nature (or anything scientifically unproven) * History (specifically dealing with war and religion) * World War II * Religion/Mythology
My personal view of Wikipedia is exactly as it is described--an online encyclopedia. I'm a bit of a perfectionist and as such, I will make small modifications often when I think it will improve an article and make it more like what would appear in an encyclopedia. I think Wikipedia in itself should strive for being the best "complete" encyclopedia there is, with every small improvement working one step closer to that goal. Often my edits are just minor grammatical improvements or spelling corrections--sometimes it's a re-wording of an article to be more linear and concise.
If you ever have questions or comments about one of my edits, please use my talk page. I would be happy to respond :)
I'll do a fancy user page sometime...
