Me, circa 2003

I, Evans Knight, (born January 13, 1987 in Shreveport, Louisiana) am a high school student. I am adopted, and am biologically of Dutch, Swedish, Swiss, English, German, Scottish, Irish, French, Creole and Cherokee descent. Since 1999, I have lived in Los Angeles, California with my family, where I am a senior at The Buckley School

I am an avid reader, but my true passion lies with genealogy. Being an adopted child, my fascination with the ancestry of both my adopted and biological families is a natural one, and it has been a constant factor in my adolescence. I also religiously do the Los Angeles Times crossword puzzle, and I have played Jeopardy! with my grandfather since I could speak. When I was younger, I was eligible to join Mensa, but my parents deemed it an inappropriate waste of time. I got a 426 on the Are You a Wikipediholic Test. I am also substantially more well endowed than my fellow Wikpedian, ParkerHiggins.

Some of my proudest discoveries in the research of my heritage are that I am descended of Nancy Ward, Colonel Thomas Horton and Randle T. Moore, as well as the Houses of Zähringen, Capet, Burgundy, Savoy, Stuart and Plantagenet (the latter through Thomas of Woodstock, the youngest son of King Edward III). An interesting tidbit is that I have calculated the present Queen of England, Her Majesty Elizabeth II is my 18th cousin twice removed. I am also indirectly related to the the late Diana Spencer, Alexander Hamilton, Daniel Boone and, through the Biddle family of Philadelphia, Nick Biddle, the frontman of Los Angeles based band, The Naturals.

I, ParkerHiggins, hereby grant you this Minor Barnstar for your diligent editing, however small each may be. Good Work!

Est omnino difficile iudicare inclusionis meritum cuiusdam rei in encyclopædia cum ratio sciendi quid populi referat incerta sit, sed nihilominus aliquid encyclopædiam dedecet

It is generally difficult to judge the worthiness of a particular topic for inclusion in an encyclopedia considering that there is no certain way to know what interests people, but some topics nevertheless are not fit for an encyclopedia.

This motto reflects the desire of these Wikipedians to be reluctant, but not entirely unwilling, to remove articles from Wikipedia.


This is just for me
