I am a custodian on the English Wikiversity, a Wikimedia project that hosts open, wiki-based research and courseware. My primary interest is in developing Wikiversity's research facilities, particularly in Computational Biology. In the past, I have been involved with other areas of the encyclopedia, including WikiProject Judaism articles and attempts at dispute resolution. The latter got the best of me and I was in voluntary Wikiexile for some time while I Wikirecovered.
My current Username is Spanish for "the weasel," after the cute little animal that is VERY bold. Got to love that creature. Occasionally I use an alternate account, JacobFrankpurification through transgression. The account, named after a person in Jewish history who actually promoted said doctrine, was created in response to a particularly egregious incident of "ethical breaching experiments" on Wikiversity. From Fall 2008 to Summer 2010, my primary account was User:AFriedman.
I know User:CordeliaNaismith personally and often work with her on Wikipedia. I've also attended real-life Wikimedia events and met other Users in real life, particularly User:Pharos.
For New Users
Welcome to Wikipedia and Happy Editing! If you're not sure how to edit or just want to learn more, this free workshop on a related site called WikiEducator will teach you the ropes and connect you with some of the friendliest and most enthusiastic people in the wiki world. It's regularly offered as an online course, which I took back when I was a novice user.
As an avid reader and a mythology buff who loves tales of little creatures that beat the odds, I'm proud to be participating in one such story. If you're interested or just curious, go ahead and leave me a message. In the meantime, here are some of my favorite links about the topic:

My Awards
The Barnstar of David
This barnstar is awarded to AFriedman for kosher contributions to Wikipedia, such as edits to the Judaism page, and for non-kosher contributions designed to increase WikiLove, such as the pork pie she gave me to make my talk page more appetizing. It is also given for her thoughtful and always civil contributions to article talk pages, and for her edits to the article on a certain high school, which were apparently within the scope of WP:NPOV.
