About

reetings, visitor, and welcome to my userpage. My interests are assorted and include, in no particular order, United States and Pennsylvania history, astronomy, spaceflight history, United States politics (mostly historical), law, medicine, the geology of Appalachia, selenology, and selenography. I do not limit myself to these, however, and one can expect to find me editing in a multitude of areas, from baseball to avant-funk, and a wholly disjointed smattering of others in between.

I've been editing Wikipedia as a hobby since 2008 and have found that editing hones a skillset, if modest, of some utility. Apart from the addition of (hopefully useful) content—the reason I joined and the reason I stay—most of the work I do on Wikipedia is of the low-key variety: copyediting articles, working at CSD/AIV/UAA, various routine maintenance, documenting historical U.S. elections, and generally keeping house at articles covering a multitude of subjects that interest me.

I became a Wikipedia administrator in 2011, allowing me to access a few additional tools and buttons on the technical side. I use that toolset mostly in the background, on a volunteer basis, to help keep things running smoothly wherever and whenever I can. If you think I can be of assistance, have a question, or would like to offer constructive criticism—administratively or otherwise—then I welcome and invite you to leave me a message; I will be glad to make your acquaintance if I have not already.
