I graduated in May 2001 in Computer Science and Mathematics with a minor in Philosophy. I have worked as the board games guide for About.com and a web developer for the Mind Sports Organisation. I was also the founder and president of the Messiah College games club. I was a volunteer for TEJO in Rotterdam for a year. I last lived in Astoria, Queens in New York City. I am currently a university researcher in Heilbronn, Germany (near Stuttgart) working for the Hochschule Heilbronn where I am developing the Wiki Wizard Java applet full-time for the JSP Wiki.

My current interests are languages, German-style board games and e-commerce. I also have a webpage at http://www.amuzulo.net/ and a blog at http://amuzulo.livejournal.com/.

I'm also the founder of the Esperanto-Vikipedio which, of course is the wikipedia in Esperanto... I changed my username from "Chuck Smith" to "Chuck SMITH" to make it conform with my name there. The Vikipedio is definitely one of the most visited Esperanto-language websites online. Wow, I'm impressed. Yay Wikipedia! I have also just recently launched the Esperanto job search website Eklaboru.


[edit] Inspirational Quote

There is no doubt that if the human race is to have their dearest wish and be free from the dread of mass destruction they could have, as an alternative, what many of them might prefer, namely, the swiftest expansion of material well-being that has ever been within their reach, or even within their dreams. By material well-being I mean not only abundance but a degree of leisure for the masses such as has never before been possible in our mortal struggle for life. The majestic possibilities ought to gleam and be made to gleam before the eyes of the toilers in every land and ought to inspire the actions of all who bear responsibility for their guidance.
--Winston Churchill

[edit] What I do on Wikipedia

I don't think I'm very good at writing content unless I'm really passionate about something (which I'm told I'm not supposed to do on here). So mostly I link sections of the Wikipedia to make things better interconnected, fix links, split pages, and general wiki management. I also create links to pages and write experts of those pages asking them if they want to write an article.

On the English wikipedia, I mostly work on the board games and the Esperanto language and culture pages. I'm a strong believer of multiplying content instead of adding it.

On the Esperanto wikipedia, I basically just try to make sure people understand the wiki concept and I work on promotion, recruitment and keeping things manageable.

On the Meta wikipedia, I bring up ideas for improving the International wikipedia and connecting them together.

On the German, French, Spanish and Dutch Wikipedias, I lurk.  :-)

[edit] Pages I plan to eventually incorporate into articles
