I’m a gaymer, cruciverbalist, muso, fishkeeper, and a politics nerd, so you’ll likely find me loitering in the articles around those topics, or wherever my next ADHD hyperfixation may take me…
In terms of content creation, my main area of focus recently has related to New Zealand music. That said, I have a habit of procrastinating the actual writing of articles by contributing in other areas of the project.
Patrolling Recent Changes – if I mistakenly revert something you added in good faith, please accept my apologies in advance and feel free to re-add your contribution.

Articles I’ve worked on:
I’d describe myself as more of a reader not a writer, and the majority of my thousands of edits have been gnome-ish in nature. That said, some of my more significant contributions are below.

By the power vested in me by nobody in particular, I hereby award you the DYK barnstar for creating the page Kumutoto Stream and successfully nominating it for DYK. It’s a joy to see this little Wellington secret get a bit more attention. AxonsArachnida (talk) 07:49, 1 June 2026 (UTC)
Awards
Slakr’s Construction Safety Award
For not just being absolutely on top of your new-page-patrol game, but also being aware of, keeping an eye out for, and tagging “hazardous” contentious-topic material within that “construction” realm, I hereby award you this hard hat.
Then again, I’m sure you’re so smart that you already have one of these, but it helps to have a spare in case you’re out and about or something. 😛
Anyhow… hello hello! I’m a frequent patroller of various mass-casualty related articles (especially those which are particularly recent) and I see you about on the talk pages quite frequently. I find your civility and ability to adhere to policy amiable and admirable.
Much love, rock on forever! ⚠︎ ArkadenBoden ⚠︎ (talk) 12:52, 18 February 2026 (UTC)
