Me and Wikipedia

A pic of me.

Hi there, I'm Steve. I'm a 21 year old Wikipedian from Australia, and I've been here since Feb 7, 2008. Most of my activities on Wikipedia at the moment surround improving our dispute resolution processes. I help out at the dispute resolution noticeboard, which I created, mediate cases at WP:MEDCAB (where I am a co-ordinator) and work on articles related to the TV show 24, as well as do maintenance activities. I'm trying my hand out at article writing at the moment, which admittedly isn't my forte. I also help out new users where possible with my adoption program. I'm happy to help you out where I can and offer my input and on things, just ask me.
