Hi, my name's David. I'm a computer programmer and occasional goth DJ from Sydney, Australia. I live in Newtown. I studied computer science at Macquarie University. I am a sad geek and have a Livejournal.
Most of my Wikipedia activity is in little bites of time at work, so you're much more likely to find me doing a bit of copy-editing, disambiguating, adding articles to lists, busy-work like that, than you are to find me writing actual articles. :-)
However, I am pleased to announce that on May 17, 2004 I made my 1,000th edit, and it was a real new article, not a little bit of copy-editing. See Charles Bathurst, 1st Viscount Bledisloe.
On June 27, 2004 I made my 2,000th edit, another real new article, and again related to rugby union in New Zealand. See Ranfurly Shield.
On July 28, 2004, RickK nominated me for adminship, and I was honoured to accept. I received 31 supporting votes and none opposing, and on August 5, I was appointed to the position of Administrator.
On August 10, 2004 I made my 3,000th edit—this time it wasn't a glorious new article, but me using my new Admin powers to hit the rollback button on an anon who had blanked a bunch of content out of Lung cancer.
Articles I have started or made (imho) significant contributions to
Antônio Parreiras | Armenian Airlines | Brian McKechnie | Charles 'Tex' Watson | Charles Bathurst, 1st Viscount Bledisloe | Clan of Xymox | Donald Byrne | Horizons: Empire of Istaria | Jabra Nicola | John Taylor (rugby player) | Johnny Ramone | Karl Wilhelm Naundorff | Marky Ramone | Merenrap | Motorola 68EC020 | Motorola 68EC030 | NAAFI | National Provincial Championship | Ralph Steadman | Ranfurly Shield | Reuben Thorne | Saudi riyal | Siouxsie & the Banshees | Sneferu | Tana Umaga | Te Tai Hauauru by-election 2004 | Tri Nations Series

I was also pleased to see Ian McKellen recently featured on the front page. Although my contributions to that article have only been minor cleanup stuff and link tweaking, I did recognise a sentence or two that I had worked on. Front page, yay!
