My name is George Watson, or dendodge if you prefer, and I'm a physics student from the United Kingdom.

I used to edit Misplaced Pages quite heavily, and I racked up more than 12,000 edits between 2007 and 2011. Eventually, the drama drove me away, and I moved to Wikinews, where I became an editor, administrator, OTRS volunteer, and arbitrator. That subsequently became even worse for drama, and I left Wikimedia altogether.

I eventually missed Misplaced Pages, so I've decided to resurrect my account here, but I'm going to attempt to keep away from all the drama. I want to contribute content, and little more. That means I won't allow myself to get dragged into disputes (unless another editor raises an issue with my actions specifically), and I won't attempt to "collect hats"—I'm happy to be a normal editor for the foreseeable future.

I'm currently busy with real life and with helping to set up LibreGlobe, a wiki-based news and current affairs project of which I am the Creative Director. As such, I probably won't be as active as I used to be just yet, but I'll be around. dendodge

Awards

I appreciate barnstars and things, and I'm flattered to receive them, but I see no point in keeping an archive of them all here—it strikes me as "trophy collecting", and will probably serve only to inflate my ego. However, certain awards are probably worth mentioning.

This editor is a Veteran Editor II and is entitled to display this Bronze Editor Star.
Your majesty, it gives me great pleasure to bestow these Imperial triple crown jewels upon Dendodge for your contributions in the areas of WP:DYK, WP:GA, and WP:FC. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 04:06, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
This Barnstar goes to Dendodge T\ for his outstanding work on creating and improving new articles related to The Beatles. The project hasn’t seen so much new input and creativity for a long time (although Dendodge has been diligently working on it for ages now, and often all by himself) so I wish the receiver of this Barnstar to feel very proud, and to sing “Yeah, yeah, yeah”.--andreasegde (talk) 18:49, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
This is for all your hard work improving everything connected with The Beatles. Enjoy, because you've earned it...--andreasegde (talk) 12:14, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
For your hard work on the current Misplaced Pages Spotlight article Kristallnacht, now a GA, I award you this barnstar for your quality Misplaced Pages Spotlight participation. Congratulations! JamieS93 12:44, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
