User:Awildman

Just another IT/SysAdmin, with an interest in Open Source Software & Community Development. I am a public servant and have no commercial ties, and will do my best to remain open-minded & neutral on most topics. Goals: Hopefully make some small contributions that will make things simpler for the next free-spirit that stumbles upon this path...

Welcome Awildman
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We're glad to have you in our community! Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful.

Happy editing! (Originally to Snori, from Sango123)
