[edit] About Me

Hmm...it's about time I created a userpage here. First off, some personal information...

My name is Jason Pallack (hence the username: my initials are jgp). I recently graduated from the University of Texas at Dallas, with a bachelor's degree in Computer Science. I now work in the computer industry, writing code. I was born in Dallas, Texas, I currently live in Dallas, and I've lived in the Dallas area my entire life. I am 22 years old.

I mostly edit microprocessor and tokusatsu-related articles on Wikipedia, and I occasionally delve into AfD. I have many other interests beyond these, but these subjects are the ones I am most comfortable editing on Wikipedia, so they are my primary editing domain.

If anyone wants to read more from me or understand me better, feel free to read my blog, which is located at [1].

If you need to contact me outside of Wikipedia, you may use AIM, IRC, Jabber, or email. My AIM screen name is QVezina. On Jabber, I am jgpallack@qnan.org. On IRC, I use the nickname jgpallack on OFTC.

[edit] News

Meh. I poke my head in every once in a while. I still find the politics highly distasteful. I'm thinking about returning. My life is somewhat more stable than it was when I left...I have a new apartment and a full-time job, so I'm a little less of a neurotic mess now (still neurotic, but not as much of a mess). Depends on whether my desire to contribute something useful is greater than my revulsion at the politics here.


[edit] Pages I have created

These are the articles I have created, in alphabetical order. By "articles", I mean that I am not including talk pages, user pages (permanent user pages, not drafts that become real articles), AfD pages, or redirects, but I am including templates and categories.

[edit] Other Wikis

I am also jgpallack on es-wiki. I don't actually speak Spanish--I created the account so I could assist Ryulong in setting up interwiki links with Tokusatsu-related articles. My name there is jgpallack because jgp was taken. I also have an account on ja-wiki, largely because I want to use my preferred skin (Cologne Blue) when reading stuff there, though I'm not confident enough in my Japanese skills to contribute.
