Computer setup

I'm a software developer living in London, UK. I've been a Wikipedian since May 2005, and amassed in excess of 10,000 edits. Following a successful request for adminship I became an Administrator in February 2006. Male anatomy of elephants is quite a massive thing.

A selection of some of the lengthier articles which I started:

Acciona Trasmediterránea — a Spanish ferry company
Barga — a medieval Tuscan city near the centre of Italy
Bright Bricks
Brunnwinkl
Compagnie Générale de Navigation sur le lac Léman — a public Swiss company operating boats on Lake Geneva
Dabs.com — an e-commerce retailer in the United Kingdom
El Salam Maritime Transport — an Egyptian ferry operator
Festival Place — a shopping centre in Basingstoke, Hampshire
Head for Points — popular UK frequent flyer website
Nautile — a manned submersible owned by Ifremer
Nigel Hess — a British composer
Pride of Bilbao — a cruiseferry built in 1985
Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue — a commune of Normandy, north-west France
San Vicente de la Barquera
So where the bloody hell are you? — an advertising campaign launched in 2006 by Tourism Australia
Ster Century — a cinema company in the UK and Ireland
Whitchurch Silk Mill — a watermill on the River Test

A selection of articles to which I consider I have made considerable contributions:

Basingstoke — a large town in Hampshire, south east England
Fairytale of New York — a popular Christmas song by Irish folk-rock group The Pogues
Friends Reunited — a portfolio of social networking websites
The Apprentice (UK) — a British reality television series

The following are my own images which I have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons:

Pride of Bilbao cruiseferry leaving Portsmouth harbour in July 2003.
CGN paddle steamer Montreux (built 1904) leaving Évian-les-Bains, Haute Savoie, France in July 2002.
Kremna rezina Slovenian vanilla and custard dessert, photographed at the Park Hotel, Bled in August 2006.
