User:GhostPirate

 Hello, thanks for stopping by. I'm GhostPirate, and this is my userpage. If you want to leave me a message, please do so on my talk page.

About me
I've been at Wikipedia for a while (I retired for a bit, but I couldn't stay away, so I created this account in Nov. 06), and I do lots of miscellaneous work, occasionally adding new articles. I do a lot of work on American Civil War biographies, and I've added more than 150 public domain images. I only go by GhostPirate on Wikipedia, so if you see the name somewhere else, it isn't me. I used to do a lot of work on the new pages patrol, and in the course of that work, I pissed off my share of vandals, hoaxsters and general malcontents. You can read their bizarre and unintentionally hilarious comments at the bottom of this page. My personal pet peeve about Wikipedia is "trivia" and "X in popular culture" sections. Whenever I see one, I want to burn it with a flamethrower. If you want to look at the userboxes, you can find out more about me.

Useful Tools
These are some very useful pages, especially for anyone who wants to fight vandalism and inappropriate page creation. Warning Templates New Pages Recent Changes Ineriot's edit counter
