I am Doug on all Wikimedia Foundation projects and on Toolserver Wiki, Wikilivres, and Botwiki. I have been an admin on this project since 20 March 2008 (82-0-0) [1].
On Wikisource I am involved in multiple language subdomain work and I am a grapheocrates (bureaucrat) and măgistrātus (admin) on the Latin Wikisource, an administrator on both the English Wikisource and a transwiki importer on multilingual Wikisource. I do a fair amount on Commons (where I am a reviewer and filemover), mostly working with source texts for Wikisource. I am also an administrator on Wikilivres and a bureaucrat and administrator with server access on Botwiki. If you need to reach me, the best option is to send me an e-mail, though I'm frequently also on IRC where I am "Doug__" (or, frequently, "BewareofDoug"). I can be found in the #wikipedia, #wikipedia-en, and #wikipedia-en-admins IRC channels. Make sure to use my user name in IRC in the message or send me a private message, as I am commonly logged in to several channels and may be involved in discussions in another wikimedia project's channel at the time of your message.
I have the following alternate accounts, which were created due to SUL conflicts in order to request usurpation or leave comments on other projects, they may have been accidentally created on other projects including this one due to SUL login, neither account edits anywhere anymore: User:JA Doug a doppelgänger account for the Japanese Wikipedia and Usuario:El Doug, a doppelgänger account for the Spanish Wikipedia. I also have the doppelgänger account on all projects: User:BewareofDoug, which I do not normally use but which may be used on this project or others where I am an admin if I need to edit as a non-admin for some purpose. I also have two bot accounts (s:User:DougBot and s:de:user:Interwiki-Bot), both are set up to use on Wikisource and neither one has any activity on the English Wikipedia at present, though either may in the future.

[edit] To do
- Penicillium camemberti <-> Penicillium candidum
- Commander - consider swapping this with Commander (rank) and turning this into dab; (see Talk:Commander#Commander_only_as_rank.3F
- Fix Template:UsernameAllowed - template has parameters that don't work
- Figure out the differences in all the usurp templates, especially Template:Usurpation requested and Template:Usurpr
- Clean up User:Doug/common.js so it looks something like this
- Look at issues of placement and design for sister links, see Wikipedia talk:Wikimedia sister projects

[edit] A little about me
I can speak and read a little French and German and speak a tiny amount of Arabic and Korean, and occasionally read a little too; but not really enough to edit. I live in Franconia, I have also lived in Korea, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq, as well as many places in the United States.
I try to keep a low profile and not tick too many people off. As far as I know I've only been mentioned two times in one discussion on WikipediaReview here. (Pretty sure the Doug here is also me)

[edit] Wikiphilosophy
I used to use some automated tools such as AWB but in late 2008 I finally saw the light and bought a Mac. I do wish that there was a version of AWB for Mac though.
I've been fairly active at times, having proposed and organized/reorganized several WikiProjects and having been very active in both dispute resolution and deletion discussions, but I also take unannounced (often unplanned) wikibreaks. I do only a little counter-vandalism and really only as I come across it. I edit in a broad range of topics but often it's just copy editing. I've rewritten or worked substantially on a small number of articles listed here and I have a few on deck here, but they may sit for years before I get the time to find sources - let me know if you are interested in working on them as I'd rather launch them before they get any outside edits.
I am strongly opposed to and will not participate in any sort of formal Admin Recall. If you have a problem with me: 1) tell me, 2) tell another well respected admin, 3) start a Request for comment, or if all else fails 4) start an Arbitration Request. If you tell another well respected admin and he or she feels it's important enough to discuss with me, I promise to take it very seriously, if he or she doesn't tell me that I was in the wrong, you should probably drop it.
I also do not support the liberal use of semi-protection on biographies of living people at all, I sometimes edit as an IP myself. I am undecided about WP:Flagged revisions. I think that the problem of biographies of living people is commonly blown way out of proportion and that WP:Copyright problems is much more serious.
I am a defender of newbies, I always try to make sure that the first message an editor receives is a welcome message, even if their efforts are misplaced. I sometimes mentor editors, past and present are listed here.
I firmly believe there is only one rule to editing on Wikipedia, one which would serve well in IRL as well. However, if you insist on the long version:

[edit] Barn stars
Not that I would expect any, but:
This user page is a barn star-free zone. If you want to thank the person for something, you can always write something nice on this user's talk page. Likewise, if you want to lambaste the person for something, you can always write something critical on this user's talk page. You can see a list of barn star free user pages at the bottom of this page.
