Hey there, I'm RyanCross (talk·contribs), a Wikipedian. I first started contributing to the English Wikipedia during mid February 2008 when I saw that "Log in / create account" link. I wondered, "What would it be like to have an account on Wikipedia, one of the most popular websites in the world?" After creating my account, I was amazed and astonished having known that I can actually edit and change Wikipedia articles, making it visible across the Internet and the world. From there, I decided to stick around Wikipedia. Even today, I'm still contributing to this site, and hope to continue doing so, helping to make this world a better place, one edit at a time.
You can get in touch with me through a number of different methods. My talk page is available to take messages, but please feel free to use e-mail for sensitive issues. Hopefully, I'll be able to respond to your message(s) soon. If not, I'll respond to them when I get to it.
I'm probably one of the nicest editors there is around, and I do like to help people, but please don't harass or provoke me. I won't retaliate, I'll merely revert. That being said, feel free to ask me any questions you have, just be civil, and don't personally attack other editors.
If you have concerns about my editing habits or general behavior, please address them on my talk page. You have my assurance that I have acted in good faith, based on my experiences with article writing and wikipedia policies. I am not out to get anybody, and hold no strong views on large groups of articles, however individually review each article and make independent decisions. If you still have questions regarding my conduct, please feel free to address it.
