And in any case you should probably pay attention to WP:AUTOBIO. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:37, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

 * James, welcome--if I may give you some advice, you may want to rethink editing under your own name. If, for instance, you're going to use Wikipedia for educational projects (which is a great idea; see School and university projects), then your own name is probably a good idea, but in most other cases it's probably not. Before you know it some editor gets upset over some edit of yours, and then it's nice if there is a bit of distance between you, the Wikipedia editor, and the real you. Have a look at Changing username, if you like. All the best, and let me know if I can help in any way (not with math, obviously). Drmies (talk) 05:32, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
