In my day job, I teach and do research at the University of Washington. I am also an active editor on several wikis and work with the Wikimedia community and the Wikimedia Foundation community to support academic research related to wikis and Wikimedia in a number of ways. Please see my user page on meta for more information.
I have created many Wikipedia user accounts — many of which I have now forgotten and some of which I have not — and have edited many pages without any accounts at all. Settling down seems to come with age so I created this account which I have reason to believe will be difficult to forget.
I teach using Wikipedia. You can often find my students my students are contributing to Wikipedia as part of their assignments.
I have more webpages than I can reasonably count and my current policy is to try not to aggravate this problem, so I'm going to be brief.
If you want to know more about me, you can read the Wikipedia article about me although I will not edit that page myself because I think doing so might make the contents suspect. Also, I have many webpages where I talk a lot about myself, my projects, and other things that I do. If you are interested in this, you can read any of the pages linked below:
Please don't hesitate to get a hold of me by editing my talk page or by emailing me at [email protected] or any of the methods mentioned in the pages above.
