Hi, my name is Gareth Jones (Gareth Jones, G Jones, GeeJo. You see?) I'm 26 years old and living in Leicester. My first edit to Wikipedia was way back in May 2005. I signed up for an account on June 13, 2005. Since then, I've made over 28,000 edits to the English edition, placing me in the top 600 (of 16,421,763). I've also been fairly prolific over on Wikimedia Commons, where I'm in the top 300 by upload size. So, what are all these edits? Mostly the following:
I'm also more than happy to lend a hand to anyone on specific problems, be they in need of an opinion, decision, or advice. As I've mentioned, please feel free to contact me if you want any input.

| Did you know... |

As I've stated elsewhere, my style of editing is to have spurts of productivity in a single area, with occasional breaks in which I do nothing more strenuous than fix formatting or typos. From time to time, I get into an article-creating mood (which never seems to last long enough), and pounce on a single subject. Most of the time, this results in a few stubs and failed Sandbox projects, but every so often the literature proves deep enough to form several complete, well-formed articles. Whenever this happens, I tend to submit the results to DYK. I've also spent a lot of time prowling Special:Newpages for articles to either speedy-delete or nominate for featuring on the Main Page (Muahahaha, the power!)
Below are the notices I've earned (I'm pretty sure a few of the earlier ones are missing) from submitting articles for Main Page exposure. I've been very active in updating the template myself since I was promoted to Admin status, so I've taken the liberty of adding the notices that would've been added if I wasn't such a freak about not seeing 10+ hour gaps between the updates. Kinda sad, I know.

| Recovering deleted versions |
|
If you need access to a Wikipedia article that has been deleted, ask me. If it's not a copyright violation, libel, or personal information, and has not been deleted as a suspected WP:BLP violation, I will provide the text for you.
Note that using the text to recreate a deleted article automatically qualifies it for speedy deletion, and keeping deleted content hanging around in your userspace has gotten editors penalized before. But that's your problem.
