User:Ranger Steve

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ranger Steve is a Time Lord who has misplaced his Tardis. In order to fill his time while looking for it, he edits Wikipedia articles about events he was actually involved in during his time travels. He does not like the Doctor, as he feels the adventures of this errant time traveller cast other Time Lords in a bad light. Ranger Steve is a regeneration of the Time Lord's previous identity, Psychostevouk. Some say he is The Stig.

Ranger Steve's eternal worklist

[edit]

Articles that one day he may get around to doing

..... one day.


The Sandboxes

Should one of the above articles ever get off that list, chances are it will languish for eternity on the list below instead.


Project Arnhem

A crazy idea to improve Wikipedia's coverage of the Battle of Arnhem.

Ranger Steve's book club

[edit]

Ranger Steve suffers from a terrible and debilitating condition, that prevents him from walking past a second hand book shop without wandering inside and buying any books they have on ancient or military history. See the tragic scale of this illness here.


Images

[edit]

Ranger Steve believes the old adage that "a picture says a thousand words". Shame then that Ranger Steve only knows 943 words.


The Cloakroom

[edit]

Ranger Steve has observed an interesting trend amongst British people – they are too reserved to place any awards or certificates on the walls of their lounge, and instead proudly display them in the downstairs bog. Some may accuse Ranger Steve of being British.
