User:Spamguy

Greetings. I am Spamguy. I am just one of the many people who make their presence known not only on Wikipedia, but across the Internet. Just as dogs mark their existence through urination, my passage through some nook in the network is usually signified by the 'Spamguy' name. You may remember me from such projects or websites as


 * Ambrosia Software (beta tester and forum entity)
 * Slashdot (complete with a front page article last year!)
 * Lilypond (bug testing)
 * Mutopia Project (music transcriber)
 * my blog

In addition, I sometimes exist out in the real world. I come from Austin, Texas, and I lived in Lexington, Virginia and Toledo, Ohio before that. I study computer science (with minors in both mathematics and music) at Case Western Reserve University, and I have a weekly radio show on WRUW-FM Cleveland.

Articles I started

 * Whitehead link May 31, 2005
 * Petrushka chord February 3, 2006
 * List of calculator words March 3, 2006

Articles I made major contributions to

 * Nabucco (although I trashed the original and started over)
 * Franz Welser-Möst (same) July 3, 2005
 * Eric Fensler September 16, 2005
 * Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center
 * Tinkle Pit (stop laughing, that's what it's called) February 9, 2006
 * Calculator spelling March 3, 2006

Articles I really, really oughta start someday

 * sleigh bell

Interests

 * Literature
 * Bringing everything I've ever read that qualifies (around 100 books and growing) into the WikiProjectNovels group, mainly by adding Infoboxes and adding the standard template. If the article is particularly sucky I'll burn the whole thing and start over to bring it up to snuff. 3 novels Infoboxed, 0 redesigned.
 * Music
 * Petty tweaks to classical and independent music articles here and there.
 * Mathematics
 * Kinda inactive with this ever since I dropped this as my major. Did a bit with knot theory, though.
 * Video games
 * Infoboxing where I can. 3 games Infoboxed, 1 redesigned.
