I am a Wikipedia:administrator since July 5, 2004. I first contributed to Wikipedia in April of 2001 (oldest edits lost in early software upgrades). My first edit with my username appears to be on April 26. I have been active on a number of online projects - active and passive (SETI@Home, Distributed Proofreaders, Mars crater labeling, Stardust@Home, Folding@Home on the Wikipedia team: Team page, etc.)

Black Wednesday
- Black Wednesday (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: Persistent disruptive editing from different IP addresses. An anonymous editor is repeatedly changing the capitalisation of a phrase without explanation. I have reverted five times in the last few days, giving detailed edit summaries, and I have tried to start a talk page discussion. Possibly a WP:NOTBROKEN issue.

User:SeanJ 2007
I usually uploaded multiple files such as logos and title cards, and sometimes the file name I uploaded needs to be changed (if the file name is incorrect or the owner of the said logo uploaded changed something like "Date of the program for the said logo"). I want to request to be a file mover so that I can do things such as I mentioned aside from tagging {{rename media}} at my uploaded logos or title cards. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 02:52, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

"Do you want to take a survey?"
On Feb. 12, 2005, I did a random pages survey. Out of 100 random pages, only 1 was a U.S. town. That's progress. Three towns in the UK, 1 in Spain and 1 in Portugal also turned up. Overall biographies were the largest category at 22%, followed by geography with 15% total. Then Lists at 7%, Disambiguation pages at 6%.
On Feb. 24, 2006, I repeated the 100 random page survey, this time getting 5 U.S. towns. Overall, geography had 26%, biography 21%, fiction 9%, music 4%, colleges 4%, lists 3% and disambigs 4%. Clearly geography and biography are our largest areas. Music, science and business scored less than I expected. Non-individual History was hardly discernable.
Even by Feb. 2005, 100 out of almost 500,000 was not statistically significant but was as much as I had patience for.
Wikiprojects I am a member of:
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Protected areas
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Rivers
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Space missions
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Michigan

Early Anon work, no need to bug the developers
Up to Dec 16, 2003, all the edits at these anonymous id's were mine (59 edits):

More recently 1,250 or so edits on 75.41.110.200 are apparently all mine. Apparently my new ID is 75.41.109.190. There are undoubtedly many others as the earliest history of many articles was not preserved by the software.
