Hi... I have no Barnstars, no other awards of any sort, no formal or informal thanks, and no significant contributions, so I don't know what brings you to this page and I won't pretend otherwise. I'd like to say I was proud to be a part of Wikipedia, but Wikipedia is so big and I make such a small number of the contributions that you probably wouldn't spot my name on the graph.

Enjoy looking at my little excuse for a page, and I doubt you'll be able to find someone who's so bad at it! Good luck, and, if you drop a note on my talk page I'll give you a barnstar. I'm trying to hand out as many as possible and there are so many that you're bound to fit one!

I have pretty much nothing to say. I like Wikipedia - not surprising as I'm a moderator of StarTrekWiki and a member of several Wikis. I'm OK at editing massive nested DIVs although I'd love it if someone could tell me how to get rid of the small border leaves on the right-hand side of the columns. (Resolved through extensive - 10 minute - research and adjustment) I mess around with templates a lot, get told off because my signature is too big and complicated, and generally make a complete fool of myself most of the time. Oh, and I hate userboxes, daylight saving time, the fact that signatures replace a template transcluder with the source code, and cauliflower. That said, daylight saving time does make getting up easier on one day as well as harder on another, and userboxes are fun to mess around with when you don't have time to rearrange your user page or create a huge template that nobody will ever use - or even need to. And then you have to edit them again because you mixed up a £ and a &... Unless you don't have a big div based page where you can preview it right. Mine has loads of gaps which disappear on save. Stupid WikiML.

Requests to Ye Noble Developers
Can we have a section dragging feature like the one in My MSN etc.?
 * Section Dragging

Can we have a way to stop our signatures expanding? Mine is a template and it's really annoying when it turns into a huge lump of unreadable, uneditable code.
 * Non-expanding Signatures

Some of the workarounds (including excessive use of
 * Better WikiML

) I frequently have to do are really annoying. Can't they be automated?
