This user loves deadlines. They love the whooshing sound they make as they go by.

This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than twenty years.

This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than ten years.

This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than fifteen years.

The most important edit philisophy of wikipedia is: Wikipedia:Ignore all rules

Nemo prefers third person autobiographies...

Nemo has been a wikipedian since the early days - back when it ran on UseModWiki (and for that reason their first edits have been lost to history) and found wikipedia via the July 2001 kuro5hin article (https://web.archive.org/web/20011115002537/http://www.kuro5hin.org:80/story/2001/7/25/103136/121 - which got slashdotted: http://slashdot.org/story/01/07/26/0312258/britannica-and-free-content or less probably, but possibly, the September followup: https://web.archive.org/web/20011021112638/http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2001/9/24/43858/2479).

Despite being around here for so long (UserID 201), Nemo has never been a heavy contributor!

by my works you shall know me - My semi-complete and mostly accurate edit history
- I note that this claims my earliest edit was 26th October 2001, however, some of those early edits are not mine! Additionally, the Chopsticks article has an edit history back to 23rd October, and that earliest version is significantly advanced on my original!
Articles I have started:
- Chopsticks (2001 - though no longer in wikipedia history due to lost history in wikipedia database conversions (the UseMod wiki -> media wiki conversion?)
- Nemo (2001)
- Franco Baresi (2001 - though I have no idea why I would have! As of 2015, I had to click through to the page to find out who he even was! I suspect this has been misattributed to me via a glitch)
- Hamburger (2002)
- Toyota Sera (2005)
- Denton (TV show) (2010)
Categories I have started (or effectively so)
- Category:Toyota concept vehicles (moved from a redirect to it's own category as part of attempting to steamroll a larger effort to subcategorise the rather large list of cars in Category:Concept automobiles
- Category:Honda concept vehicles
- Category:Audi concept vehicles
- Category:Pontiac concept vehicles
- Category:Nissan concept vehicles
- Category:Plymouth concept vehicles
- Category:Dodge concept vehicles
- Category:Volkswagen concept vehicles
- Category:BMW concept vehicles
- Category:Ford concept vehicles
Personal wiki projects I have embarked upon
- Jan 2009: Subcategorisation of vehicles in the Concept Autos category. ie moving them into subcategories per make. See the categories I created above for examples...
Other pages I have started
- Wikipedia:Meetup/Canberra

Nemo notes that userboxes seen above are rarely updated, and prefers to demonstrate beliefs and style through actions rather than words. And whilst this is true, it's probably truer to say that it's simply not much worth the effort to set up and maintain them comprehensively. The edit history (above) or through direct contact (below) are the best way to find out about the Nemo.

Direct contact details, via Nemo's personal wiki

Finally, the watchlist on wikipedia is kind of a memory aide to things which are cool or otherwise piques Nemo's interest. Every now and then it's sync'd to the public version of the same (User:NemoThorx/watchlist).

Finally finally, the personal sandbox, which sees practically no use at all!
