Hey there — I'mKevin, a 30-something Wikimedian and software engineer from the United States.

I made my first edit to Wikipedia in 2007. I was pretty young when I first started editing, and Wikipedia has been a pretty big part of my internet experience growing up (there are worse sites to grow up on!). Over the years, I found myself spending more time on event organizing. I founded theOhio Wikimedians User Group, and serve on the Board of the Wikimedia District of Columbia chapter. I help organizeWikiConference North America,Wiki Loves Monuments in the United States, andWikiPortraits. Don't hesitate to reach out to me regarding any of those groups and projects.

I have also developed and maintain several wiki-related tools:

• Cite Unseen, a user script that adds categorical icons to Wikipedia citations (editable sites, advocacy groups, government-controlled sources, etc.), to provide readers and editors a quick initial evaluation of citations at a glance.
• View it!, a suite of tools to help Wikipedia users discover all relevant Wikimedia Commons media depicting—or otherwise related to—the article they are reading. This includes a user script that embeds a gallery of images at the top of articles, as well as an API for other users to pull media related to any topic that has a Wikidata Q-ID.
• WikiAsteroids, a funAsteroids-inspired arcade game powered by real-time Wikipedia edits.
• Indie Wiki Buddy, a browser extension that redirects users from corporate wiki farms to independent, community-controlled alternatives.

If you would like to contact me, I am availableon my talk page or throughemail. I'm happy to answer questions, provide help, or anything else, really.
