- How depressing. I found the information I was looking for, only to discover that someone is trying to delete it.
Welcome to my Wikipedia page. My nick in the #Wikipedia channel is either ShaunMacPherson or Synonymous in case you wanted to know :). I have been a member of Wikipedia since January, 2004. Some describe me as an inclusionist although I dislike (being imprisoned by) labels.
My background: I am a 2003 cum laude graduate from Laurentian University with an honours Bachelor of Arts in economics / psychology. I have ~50% more courses in economics than psychology so one could possibly say I have a major in economics.
I like science fiction, organizing data, video and computer games, reading books, and reading online articles, news, columns, blogs and reports.
I've contributed large lists of information for List of SNES games and List of video game music. I am especially good at collecting and manuplating spreadsheet information, and then converting it into Wiki format.
I was on the List of Wikipedians by number of edits and was sliding down due to having limited internet access. However now I do :).

Inside joke: I am starting to use this inside joke more around Wikipedia so I will uninside it. Since I do not spell that great sometimes, I've accussed people of following me around fixing my articles and spelling, and I call them my posse, or the mob :).

Quotations

Last week's quote:
- There has grown up in the minds of certain groups in this country the notion that because a man or corporation has made a profit out of the public for a number of years, the government and the courts are charged with the duty of guaranteeing such profit in the future, even in the face of changing circumstances and contrary public interest. This strange doctrine is not supported by statute nor common law. Neither individuals nor corporations have any right to come into court and ask that the clock of history be stopped or turned back, for their private benefit.

Google Popularity Wikipedia Article Ranking Project
What a mouthful! I am starting an interesting little sub project here to see how well Wikipedia ranks on google for information on different topics. If you think this is a good idea feel free to move this to a common area and email the the address in my talk page.
