I joined Wikipedia in November 2011 to help keep me busy during the winter but I realized the value of contributing to the community very quickly. While I am not as engaged as I used to be, I still browse Wikipedia very often and will make edits where appropriate. Side note: My name has nothing to do with being an Astros fan, I'm a huge Guardians fan. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message.
My work
Here on Wikipedia, I usually edit articles that have to do with amusement parks, amusement rides, Major League Baseball and anything that has to do with Ohio or Cleveland. I also enjoy other topics and you'll see me making random edits to other pages. I tend to surf Wikipedia and if I see a mistake, I'll go ahead and fix it. I'll mostly be working with getting articles to Good Article status and Featured List criteria. You'll also find me doing work on Wikimedia Commons, mostly transferring photos from Flickr.
If for any reason you need to contact me, please leave a message on my talk page. If I left a message on your talk page, please reply there as I am watching it. I check Wikipedia a few times a week, I'll post a message at the top of my page if I'm going to be inactive for an extended period of time.
Thanks for creating the new List of former Cedar Point attractions article, an article that one wouldn't expect to find in more traditional encyclopedias. Your efforts to improve Wikipedia are appreciated! Northamerica1000(talk) 08:29, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
You've nominated 7 articles and they've all become Good Articles. Keep up the great work!!!--Dom497 (talk) 19:51, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
The Coaster Star
For all the great work you've been doing on various roller coaster articles, including raising Disaster Transport to GA. Nice work. IronGargoyle (talk) 20:46, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
The Basketball Quasi-Barnstar
I've had Kyrie Irving on my watchlist for a while since it used to be hit with a lot of vandals, and I've noticed all of your helpful contributions to the article. Keep up the great work! TCN7JM 21:02, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
The Original Barnstar
For bringing List of roller coaster rankings to featured status, and for all you do on roller coaster articles generally. It's much appreciated! -- Khazar2 (talk) 22:21, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
For promoting your very first FA article (and all the other GA's you've written). Congrats!--Dom497 (talk) 13:10, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
