About me |
I've been very busy with schoolwork lately. I will start contributing to Wikipedia again as soon as possible.
I am a student at Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama. I am an experienced Wikipedia user, and I am always willing to help newcomers. If you would like to contact me, please leave me a message on my talk page or feel free to send me an e-mail.
When I'm on Wikipedia, you can usually find me helping new users or working on WikiProject Country Music.

My user name |
My user name is derived from the chemical compound tantalum telluride, which was not notable enough to be the subject of a Wikipedia article when I joined the project. Wikipedia editor Nightstallion eventually created an article about tantalum telluride on 10 March 2006. Feel free to edit or expand it within the bounds of Wikipedia policy and guidelines.

My wiki-philosophy |
“Everytime you click ‘save this page,’ be completely convinced that what you are saving will make Wikipedia a better, more friendly, and more sucessful project, and if what you've typed won't do that, don't click save. That is all I ask.” -- Essjay (talk • contribs)
