==Wiki editing==
Wikipedia is wonderful.

I started here in January 2006 and soon got hooked. And I haven't destroyed the place yet - it's still here every time I wake up, no matter what I do to it! 

Wikipedia is like a house being built by the community, and I'm putting my brick in the wall as I pass on by; sometimes I will linger and sweep up some mess. I used to think of myself primarily as a content builder, though I also got involved in maintenance stuff like writing guidelines, closing AfDs and other discussions, helping out in dispute resolution, !voting in RfAs, reviewing Good Articles, archiving talkpages, etc.  Maintenance and content building each has its own value in building the house. 

I am an admin. I was a 'Crat, and served three terms on [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee|ArbCom]], but resigned from those roles as I felt myself getting older and slower, and less active. We need more active and engaged users to step up to become 'Crats. These days I mostly potter around, tinkering in a minor way with articles on subjects I am reading about - a bit of light copy-editing, but I may occasionally do some maintenance or admin work. I like doing GA reviews, though my involvement there is sporadic. I have been involved in reviewing, editing and/or nominating over 200 [[Wikipedia:Good articles|Good articles]]. I have written several [[WP:DYK|DYK]] articles, took [[Covent Garden]] to Good Article then FA status, and assisted or been a significant contributor to several other Featured Articles, such as [[Tiananmen Square self-immolation incident]], [[The Kinks]], and [[George Harrison]]. 

I enjoy giving and receiving awards. Even if the giving and receiving of awards may be fairly random at times, the support and praise of fellow Wikipedians is important. Give someone an award today! [[#Stars|These are the random stars I have been given]].

SilkTork is a name I have used for my internet activity since the 1990s. My real name is Steve Pereira. I was born and I live in the UK, from mixed ancestry - Welsh, Irish, and Portuguese. I have a French wife, Christelle, and we have daughter, Phocea, who was born in March 2009. We lived in [[Rochester, Kent]], when I started on Wikipedia, we now live in [[Southampton]].  I have five children from three marriages and I have seven grandchildren.
	 	
I'm a writer, teacher, and examiner, but gave up teaching a few years ago. Primarily at the moment I am a house-parent and writer. I have had a varied career in which I have been dustman, welder, shop manager, wine salesman, businessman, publisher, gardener, teacher, poet, kitchen designer, examiner, reviewer, writer, warehouseman, editor of poetry magazines including "[[Angel Exhaust]]" and "Responses", and editor of an international travel magazine, "Eutopia". One of my hobbies is running, and I have completed several marathons - generally in a time just over 6 hours. 
		 	
My interests are varied and constantly changing, but include: films, especially those of [[Andrei Tarkovsky|Tarkovsky]], [[David Lean]], [[Kubrick]] and [[Kurosawa]]; popular music from the 1950s onwards; [[beer]] and pubs, literature of all times and countries; playing chess badly; [[human rights]]; the history of [[roads]] and places; and researching and reading up on whatever grabs my attention this month!
