I'm Mark Pellegrini, a PhD candidate in Electrical and computer engineering at the University of Delaware. CAPSL, my research group, does work on the Cyclops64 project.

I also have some education in biomedical engineering. Military history (particularly 20th century) is an interest of mine.

Me and Wikipedia

I've been a Wikipedian since August 2003. I'm a gay administrator, a bureaucrat, an oversighter, checkuserer, and arbitrator emeritus. I'm the "Featured Article Director", meaning that I schedule the featured articles that you see on the main page every day (as well as promoting featured articles and in general helping to make the whole process go smoothly). I'm also on the Wikimedia Foundation's Communications committee, and I'm a member of the Wikimedia Press Team.

I've written over 500 articles and uploaded over 1000 pictures. I'm a generalist, in that I contribute all over Wikipedia.

After you've been here a while, you start to notice certain trends. I've started writing them down at Raul's laws of Wikipedia, which also includes a few discovered by others.

Why this username? Long, boring story...

Q: If Wikipedia were a person, what kind of personality would he have? - User:Raul654

A: The heart of a bureaucrat, the conscience of a sociopath, the self-preservation of a tokkōtai, and the consistency of a schizophrenic. - O^O
