User:Pharos

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Greetings, fellow Wikipedians!

[edit] Wikipedia bio

I, Pharos, am a Wikipedian who has been active since September 2004.

My first article was U Thant Island, and I founded and have tried to be active in WikiProject New York City (having faltered somewhat on that latter count).

I became an administrator in March 2005, and in that capacity have mostly been involved in Main Page maintenance.

[edit] Present activities

I have just returned to Wikipedia after a significant absence. I found something of my previous editing frustrated through a lack of direction and a spreading-oneself-too-thin, and hereby apologize for the several half-completed projects I left in my wake. I trust that my return shall see a more fruitful effort.

As a first project, I will again revive my erstwhile sound initiative in the form of Wikipedia:Sound of the day. If you would like to help, please leve a message at Wikipedia talk:Sound of the day. Thanks.

Sound of the day Speeches Thursdays I am the Edison Phonograph (info) (143 seconds, 1414KB) Do you need media help? The wonders of the phonograph are evoked in this early form of audio advertising, recorded by Len Spencer. Sound credit: Edison Records Archive - Request new sound

This is a temporary userpage, omitting some gracious stuff like barnstars which I will restore when I feel I have re-earned them. Watch this space!
