User:Xen0phile

A.k.a. Ian Ruotsala. I've been browsing Wikipedia regularly since 2004, but didn't start editing regularly until June of 2005. Since spring of 2006, I have found less time to contribute to Wikipedia, though I like to stop in from time to time. I am presently a college student living near Seattle. I'm interested in a variety of sciences and have considered majoring in physics or neuroscience, but I'm now aiming for computer science. Non-academic interests include science fiction, role-playing games, the Internet (some people collect stamps, I collect information), electronic music, photography and public radio.

A list of the articles I have contributed to here, a lot of copyediting with some larger changes when I feel I'm familiar enough with the subject and am not occupied by studying. A complete list of all my contributions here.
