Administrator-y stuff
Me becoming an admin by 'crat WJBscribe
My Deletion & Undeletion log
My Block & Unblock log
My Protection & Unprotection log
General disclosure. For reasons of privacy (mostly mine, partly yours) this admin is not available by email. For reasons of transparency (mine and yours), this admin is not available on IRC. Is not now, nor ever will be. In short, what happens on Wiki stays on Wiki. Sorry for the inconvenience this may cause. There are 1400+ admins that may still be able to assist you off-wiki, otherwise leave me a message here. Don't worry, it is impossible to insult me and I've nothing to hide. But be creative, regular vandalism gets reverted. Very creative "vandalism" might get saved. Cheers, K76.
I ♥ Wikipedians
If you are reading this, it means you are not reading an article. It is quite possible that you are more fascinated by Wikipedians than Misplaced Pages. If this is you, take heart my friend. I enjoy userpages too and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
Take this quiz if you are not sure:
1. When on a wiki page, is your first instinct to see the discussion? If yes, continue...
2. When on the discussion page, is your next click on a username? If yes, continue...
3. Do you copy/paste userboxes from that particular user more than 50% of the time, or find yourself reading their talk page and checking out their contributions?
4. If yes, than take comfort in who you are, and be glad you're not the other.
Origins of My Username
Among many other places, you may likely see my name in the AfD logs as nominator, participator (aka !voter), and closer. I really enjoy the deletion process, and always participate boldly with good cause, and always with good taste. Please note, though, my username, Keeper76, has absolutely nothing to do with my propensity to nominate, participate, or close any debate as keep, or delete for that matter.
Keeper has long been a pseudonym of mine and was borne long before Misplaced Pages was even a possibility, seeing as how I was called this before personal computers existed. Also, it does not mean I'm one of these, or these, or these, or these. I'm also not a bookkeeper, although it's one of my favorite words because of the rare triple-double (ookkee) in the middle. I have not read or written this or this and I am most certainly not a brand name of one of these. A new one, recently christened by editor (and confirmed sockpuppet) LST421listens that I hadn't thought of: No, I'm not a Trapper Keeper.
My favorite Misplaced Pages quote relating to keeper comes from Keepers (Mass Effect):
"Attempts to communicate with (keepers) have been fruitless, and they seem to be genetically programmed to carry out complex tasks. It is unknown if they are sentient. Upon capture or analysis, they release fatal acid destroying themselves."
The 76 also has no meaning or importance to wikiworld. Don't misconstrue it to mean age, aka age, DOB, number of arrests, or IQ. It also doesn't signify that I am necessarily a fan of these guys, or any particular element, or any particular song, year, gas station, highway, nebula, film, newer film, painting, flag or ship for that matter. All incorrect assumptions on your part. Is it possible that it is completely random?
Some days
Some days, I don't edit. But I'm still on Misplaced Pages. Usually, if you check my contributions, you'll see a day or two go by without a significant edit. What am I doing? Reading! Reading! Reading! Have you ever just spent time reading the articles and learning about obscure subjects and following "linki-trails"? It's good fun. Anytime you see my daily edits consisting of a spelling correction here and there, or perhaps no edits at all, it means I'm having a reading day instead of an editing day. If you really must know my edit count...
