Rules to wiki by
[edit]Some rules I (try to) follow:
- Make every edit count.
- Make my points once and once only.
- Respond in heated discussions no more than once a day.
- Allow other users to work on whatever area of the project they choose.
WikiBreaks
[edit]I frequently take extended WikiBreaks with no prior warning, as my WikiIntrest ebbs and flows. If you'd like to contact me about something and I haven't edited in a while, feel free to use the email in my user infobox at right (add ".com" at the end!).
Current Projects
[edit]Sustainable Technologies Project
[edit]I spend most my wikitime working on my sustainable technologies project. It's in my user space for now, but if you're interested feel free to check it out.
Medical Physics
[edit]I'm also hoping to do some work on medical physics articles (I'm am doing a PhD in the field, after all).
To Do List
[edit]- Do some work on pages needing physics/math expert attenion; many seem to be missing a "layman's intro".
- Confidence interval reportedly needs to be more lay-friendly.
- Ecocites needs massive clean-up; also might fit in SusTech.
- Add more stuff to my to do list.

Favorite Contributions
[edit]- Stopping Power—First page I spent much time working on; did a major copyedit.
- Talk:Hubbert peak theory—Archived the talk page here to refocus the bloated discussion.
- General Stubs–A short list of general stub templates; for stub sorting better than {{stub}} without having to dig through the whole stub list.
- Sunlight—Expanded this to included the energy focus from The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight.

- Image:Solenoid 2.png
- Recycling—In Progress—Moving this slowly towards good article status.
- The nifty user infobox above!
