Due to work and family commitments, as well as stuff I want to do in the real world (working on my family tree, sorting out my own websites, etc), I won't be on Wikipedia as much as I used to! I hope to get onto Wikipedia most days (even if it is using my mobile phone and my alternative account Phantomsteve.alt.) However, there may be times when I can't get online. Please leave me a message and I will get back to you as soon as I can - and don't be offended if another editor who watches this page replies!

About Me
|
|
|
I live in Croydon, England.
| “ | England is awesome | ” |
| — Jon Stewart, Daily Show with Jon Stewart, 20 July 2011 | ||
I was a primary school teacher for 15 years, then worked as a security officer for about 7 years; amongst my previous jobs was that of being a security officer at Battersea Dogs and Cats Home! I now work as a security and compliance administrator for a global multi-media company.
I have used the English Wikipedia for research, and joined on the 25th May 2005, when I wanted to add to the entry on Thornton Heath to update the information about the Pond!
I received my first vandalism on this page on 27th July 2009 - from an IP whose edits I had reverted for presumed vandalism. I'm guessing that shows that I was right about it being vandalism!
On this Wikipedia, I am an admin. I used to use the account creation request interface to help create new accounts on Wikipedia, but have not done so in a long time, due to family and work commitments eating into my time! I also like to answer questions on the Help Desk (although these days this is very infrequent) and have been known to on the IRC #wikipedia-en-help channel. I was also an Oversighter from 27th August 2010 to 4th May 2011 - I asked for the Oversight permission to be removed from my account, as due to work and family commitments, I cannot spend the time working on Oversight.
