Hi, my name is Ed Poor and I'm one of the earliest members of the Wikipedia project. I was an admin and bureaucrat there for a while, but then I got "promoted to user".

I know quite a bit about the internal workings of Wikipedia: the database structure, formatting, templates, dispute procedures, content and style guidelines, etc.

Dpbsmith asked me to come over, so here I am. How may I be of service? --Ed Poor 12:33, 19 March 2007 (EDT)

Mottos

"Battle not with monsters lest ye become a monster and if you gaze into the abyss the abyss gazes into you. — Friedrich Nietzsche"

Articles I've started here

Substantial changes

Moved global warming to global warming controversy - should have asked first, sorry!
Greenhouse effect
Sodomy

Blocks and unprotects

I go after obnoxious users, not difficult pages. I've unprotected a handful of pages and am watching them. I've blocked one unproductive user. And he seems to have decided to be productive now.

Welcome
