The real world me

|- |

I'm a 'Clinical Molecular Science' student at University of Maastricht, Netherlands and I hope to end up in academic research. I'm particularly interested in methods of gene therapy, including the vectors used to carry the payload, since I see so much more potential over traditional medicine.

In my spare time I run a transnational potato business. |-

The Wikipedia me

|- | I've had a Wikipedia bookmark since 04/07/04 but didn't start contributing until the following year. My motivations for contributing include a (diminishing) sense of debt to society and my will to better the lives of others... Although not as fundamental as food and water etc., information is obviously an important and valuable resource and vital to helping any person to reach their potential.

My special interests are protein engineering and gene therapy and hope to increase the wealth of wikiknowledge in this area over the coming years. I have next-to-no image editing skills but hope to pick some up over time and contribute these also.

I hope to see cooperation between the Wikipedia and Citizendium/Veropedia projects. I think they can compliment each other and together provide a feasible way of allowing millions of users to contribute to a wealth of accurate knowledge over the coming decades.

In order to concenrate on my course, I probably wont be contributing to either project in any significant way for a couple of years but I'll still fix any minor problems that I notice. |- |-

|- | It's usually obvious when deletion is the correct course of action. When an article is doing no harm and can be developed over time, I think it should be left alone for those that will improve it. I think it's a waste of the efforts of the original contributor, the deleter and the next person who comes along to start a new stub on the subject. Effort is valuable and shouldn't be wasted like this! In summary; improve it; don't remove it!

If you wish to contact me, feel free to make a note on my talk page or use the 'email this user' link in your 'toolbox' below the Wikipedia seach box. |-

Significant contributions

|- | All my contributions are signficant, godamnit! The most significant at the moment was probably to two hybrid screening but I never even finished that. I've created a fair few stubs but I'm moving towards creating fuller articles on things I'm more interested in since apparently a beefier article is less likely to get deleted as though it wasn't noteworthy. |- |-

Behold! My creations!

|- | Below are some examples of my fine work. Deletionists stay away!

I often can't be bothered to keep a log of my contributions, since we both know that you don't care! Suffice to say that I am indeed, a well-respected pillar of the Wikipedian community!
