ϋrbanяenewaℓ is taking a long wikibreak and will be back on Wikipedia when I have a little more time to devote. I am hopeful more users will pick up on the topics I have been working on while I am gone. I am sure I will be back full force at some point and in the meantime I will be watching and reserve the right to stop by from time to time if necessary. Effective as of October 1, 2010
This user has been on Wikipedia for 17 years, 9 months and 3 days.
My primary areas of focus on Wikipedia over the last few years have been private equity, finance and companies. These are not the most active areas of the project. I work in Finance which potentially explains the interest (although maybe not why I spend time on Wikipedia. I started the Private Equity Task Force to focus the efforts of interested Wikipedians on this area. I have worked on creating new content around private equity investors and private equity firms More recently, I have been working on defunct but historically notable financial institutions. I have been trying to populate the list of former investment banks.
