==About==
Hiya, I like to work in the fields of computer science and computer engineering, though I don't hold any formal tertiary education or certification. I mostly work with [[Wikipedia:Python (programming language)|Python]] and [[Wikipedia:x86 assembly language|
==Contributing==
Due to short amount of time in a day (only 24 hours!) and the craziness of life, I may edit on and off from time to time. I'll usually edit during the weekdays and I tend to work on high priority projects, although I may help work on others. I also like to edit Wikiversity a lot more than Wikipedia, because ''Wikiversity isn't Wikipedia''!
I mainly work in the field of computer sciences and all things related to the computer, although I may work outside of this from time to time.
==Help==
I'll gladly answer questions involving:
* [[Wikipedia:Python (programming language)|Python]].
* 16-bit and 32-bit [[Wikipedia:C (programming language)|C]].
* [[Wikipedia:X86 assembly language|x86 Assembly]].
* The [[Wikipedia:x86|x86 architecture]].
* [[Wikipedia:Real mode|Real mode]].
* [[Wikipedia:Netwide Assembler|NASM]].
I can also answer general questions involving the projects that I work.
==Helpful Wiki Stuff==
{{cot|Wikiveristy}}
* [[User:Guy vandegrift/Editorial tricks]] contains some page editing tips and tricks.
* [[Template:ABCD]]
* [[Generating_dynamic_content_with_MediaWiki]]

{{cot|Wikipedia}}
* [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Ignore all rules|Wikipedia:Ignore all rules]] is a helpful policy '''''if''''' it's not abused. See [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:What "Ignore all rules" means|Wikipedia:What "Ignore all rules" means]].
* [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Snowball clause|Wikipedia:Snowball clause]] is another good policy that I should note.
