Hello. I'm I dream of horses. My pronouns are she/her/herself. I live in the Pacific Time Zone. Please be sure that you mean to contact me and not someone else. I have a FAQ here, which you should pursue before asking me anything. Other ways to contact me are listed here. I don't review drafts on request. If you want to ask a question anyone can answer, you'll most likely receive a reply more quickly if you ask it somewhere else or click Help! If you do ask a question here, a talk page watcher might (rarely!) reply, so don't be confused about that. I'm willing to talk to members of the press, per this notice.

On 1 January 2025, a one-month backlog drive for new pages patrol will begin in hopes of addressing the growing backlog. Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Each article review will earn 1 point, while each redirect review will earn 0.2 points. Streak awards will be given out based on consistently hitting point thresholds for each week of the drive. Barnstars will also be granted for re-reviewing articles previously reviewed by other patrollers during the drive. Interested in taking part? Sign up here.
