Someone pretending to be me has been soliciting money on various social media sites to approve Wikipedia articles. It is not me. Please ignore and/or report them to that site's abuse address.

If you want me to see what you write on a discussion page (other than my talk page), be sure to ping me with {{Re|AlanM1}}. Please be patient – a week is not an unreasonable response time.
Here's some stuff I'm interested in and some links I use regularly.
Hardware, food, or even fish, gratefully accepted
