User:Shrumster

Welcome to the Wikipedia user page of the Shrumster! Proud to be first and foremost, a content generator for the English Wikipedia since September 2006. She is extremely proud to claim that most of her edits are in actual article mainspace, and not talk pages, userpages and other non-encyclopedia-related edits. As an editor, Shrumster makes sure that as much as possible, information she adds to articles is supported by in-line citations or a source. Shrumster is an ardent follower of Wikipedia:Ignore all rules. She also believes that notability is in the eye of the beholder noter and thus as long as an article is well-sourced, neutral and well-written, it belongs on Wikipedia.

Current news: I'm a marine ichthyologist by trade. Currently working on a ton of turtle articles. Don't ask. :P

Wikibreak

• Went on Wikibreak March 2007. Personal reasons.
• Semi-Wikibreak August 2007. Burnout.
  • Update: September 2010. Still on break. Finishing life stuff.
