I've been contributing to the English wikipedia since 2001, first as the user firehawk and under this current username.

I'm a 27 year old medical doctor (M.B.,B.S. (Sydney)) currently working in Singapore, having completed medical school in the University of Sydney.

Previously hooked on everything2 (userpage), I've become addicted to wikipedia after realizing that this could be the next big thing (tm). A free encyclopedia, written by people on the Internet at large, under a free license, freely downloadable ... this has many of the requirements for becoming the greatest reference the world has ever had.

I think of it as contributing to overall human knowledge.

So far my contributions have largely been in the medical field but I do write about other things and I do do quite a bit of editing.
