about me
Hi, I'm dendodge.
I used to be around a lot more, and was especially active on Wikinews until other commitments got in the way, but I still edit here sometimes and at some point I might make more significant content contributions. Watch this space, I guess.

good articles
This user has helped promote 2 good articles on Wikipedia. |
I've only contributed significantly to a couple of good articles so far, so this section looks rather sparse right now. I should definitely rectify that at some point.
did you know...
- 2008-11-03: ... that John Philip Sousa's "Transit of Venus March" (listen) was rediscovered by a staffer at the Library of Congress in 2003 after it had been believed lost for over 100 years?
- 2009-03-05: ... that George Frideric Handel's Fitzwilliam Sonatas (No. 3 here) were not originally intended to be a set, and were only designated such in 1948?
- 2009-05-17: ... that the plane of the ecliptic (effect pictured) is the imaginary plane which all the planets in our Solar System share as they orbit the Sun?
- 2009-07-25: ... that the longest horn ever recorded on a Marco Polo sheep (mounted head pictured) measured 1.9 m (6.2 ft) and weighed 60 lb (27 kg)?

awards
I appreciate barnstars and things, and I'm (very) flattered to receive them, but I see no point in keeping an archive of them all here—it strikes me as "trophy collecting", and will probably serve only to inflate my ego (although that won't stop me from giving them out when I feel they're deserved!). However, certain awards are probably worth mentioning.

work to do
- Physics vital articles
Ideally, most of these should be GA-class or above. Do something about that.
