I've been editing Wikipedia since October 2010. I mostly involve myself with improving the sources of major articles, updating, copyediting and removing vandalism. My major areas of interest on Wikipedia include technology, modern history (particularly of China), spaceflight, skyscrapers and global demographics. As far as I'm concerned, Wikipedia's purpose is to educate the reader; its articles should be detailed and well-sourced, offering large amounts of accurate information on as many subjects as possible – within reason, of course.

The name is a reference to Oxford's Michaelmas term, and to 1957, the year my father was born.
