About me | I've been very busy with schoolwork lately. I will start contributing to Wikipedia again as soon as possible. I am a student atAuburn University inAuburn,Alabama. I am an experienced Wikipedia user, and I am always willing to help newcomers. If you would like to contact me, please leave me a message onmy talk page or feel free tosend me an e-mail. When I'm on Wikipedia, you can usually find me helping new users or working onWikiProject Country Music. |

| My user name | My user name is derived from the chemical compoundtantalum telluride, which was not notable enough to be the subject of a Wikipedia article when I joined the project. Wikipedia editorNightstallion eventually created an article about tantalum telluride on 10 March 2006. Feel free toedit or expand it within the bounds of Wikipedia policy and guidelines. |

| My wiki-philosophy | “Everytime you click ‘save this page,’ be completely convinced that what you are saving will make Wikipedia a better, more friendly, and more sucessful project, and if what you've typed won't do that, don't click save. That is all I ask.” --Essjay (talk •contribs) |
