• I used to contribute as User:140.32.xx.xxx and User:70.160.xxx.xxx before I chose the handle "Rlevse". Sometimes I still do that when I forget to log in-;).

I started out on Wikipedia mainly doing copyedit, cleanup, and wikifying articles--which I did dozens of times. My main interests are history, Scouting, Boy Scouts of America, the military, and movies. My wife is from Thailand, so I have worked on many articles regarding that country and culture. I am retired from the U.S. Navy and now work as a computer systems engineer.

One of the founders of Scouting WikiProject, created Scouting Portal (the 8th Featured Portal on WP), Good Articles reviewer. See About me. According to this page, I am the 179th highest contributor to Wikipedia.

  Scouting Tireless Contributor Award, a sash full of Scouting Barnstars; For reaching your seventh month of never-ending and utterly relentless hard work on Scouting-related articles. For never losing focus like the rest of us do, and still having the energy to dabble in other areas of Wikipedia. And because a third copy of the original Scouting Barnstar would look too repetitive on your user page! — Rebelguys2 18:33, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
