I don't use my username(or remember:headbang: 'cause it never asks) but I'd say 5-20.Over the last year.Never on serious articles like George Washington but on movies and TV shows like the Simpsons and Die Hard.And it was always only a line or two.

I'm three edits away from having made 600 edits to Wikipedia. How many have you made, if any?

To find out there is this website (http://tools.wikimedia.de/~interiot/cgi-bin/Tool1/wannabe_kate) where you just need to put in your username, or if you don't have a username, your IP address.

lol. You apparently don't know how easy it is to get somebody's IP.

EDIT: The reason you use your IP if you don't have an actual username is because Wikipedia automatically assigns anonymous editors a username which is their IP address.

Dying is rather easy to do as well, but I don't go around trying to commit suicide.:p

None, on this IP. Occasionally (when my IP switches) I've recieved messages from Wikipedia saying that "my" IP has been banned, for whatever reason.

Not sure. I don't really keep track. All of my edits fall into one of two categories: minor grammatical edits and absurdist vandalism.

Didn't even read the OP, did you?

Sel Appa, can you paste your contributions page? I want to see your work. For the record, mine is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Rothery

I did, but there are no edits under my current IP. The IP where I am now is always changing, and I've edited from other locations as well.

Only one, editing out vandalism on some random article. It was using a computer at school, I think...

I only have one, and that was to add a line in an entry on a web-comic that I like. I don't know if the wiki page is still valid though, as I seem to remember something about it under review for removal.

One. About my alma mater. Someone had written "the Lesbian Rovers dyke out on the softball field" in the sports section. So I changed it.

10. I most seem to be removing adjectives that appear to be selling something.

Although, I did make fun of the Sedin Sisters on Henrick's page...

Hopefully to something more appropriate, like "the Lesbian Rovers dyke out just about anywhere, really. Those sluts."
