Hi. Way back in 2007 I figured I'd set up an ID in order to start contributing by creating articles and nominating for afd, and not just editing and prod-ing. Previously I had been contributing by a number of different IP addresses (work, home, etc.) [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] That's not to say I am proud of all of those contributions; I even got a ban warning on one of them when I went a little crazy with prodding.

If you want to see all of my contributions since then, click here, and for my deleted contributions, Admins can click here. As far as page creations, most pages I create are in the U.S. business and economics space, but I range outside that area occasionally.

Deletions

Prods and A7/A9 Speedys

These are the ones I started, after I started keeping track but before I implemented the automated User:UnitedStatesian/CSD log and User:UnitedStatesian/PROD log

If you are upset to find an article here and red, don't be offended, an admin had to agree with me.

Many, many others before I started keeping track.
