The black-faced blenny (Tripterygion delaisi) is a species of fish in the family Tripterygiidae, the threefin blennies. It is found in the Mediterranean Sea and adjacent Atlantic Ocean coasts, at depths from 3 to 40 metres (10 to 130 ft), and prefers shaded areas such as rock faces and crevices. During the breeding season, territorial males develop a characteristic yellow body with a black head, while females and other males are coloured grey-brown for camouflage. The black-faced blenny produces a red fluorescent signal using specialised cells in the iris, which it can regulate in brightness. Males defend nesting territories beneath overhangs, aggressively repelling intruders and defending the eggs from predators until they hatch. These black-faced blennies, one female and the other a territorial male, were photographed in Arrábida Natural Park, off the Portuguese coast. Photograph credit: Diego Delso | |||||||||

I'm an academic in Information Systems, although my undergraduate and most of my postgraduate work was in philosophy. I'm interested in Fantasy and Science Fiction, Adelaide, Philosophy, Anime and a number of computing and Information Systems subjects — especially as regards Knowledge Management, which is my main area of academic study.
I tend to edit widely, as often I wish to improve articles because I see them as important for Wikipedia, rather than because I'm interested in the topic (although I have rather eclectic tastes and reasonably liberal sentiments). I have access to a number of good databases thanks to academia, so I'm not bad at referencing, and I'm always willing to give it a shot when asked. Generally I'll help wherever I can, and I particularly enjoy that feeling which comes from being useful. :) I've also got one of those new digital camera things, and I enjoy taking photos.
Although she rarely edits (try as I might to convince her otherwise) my wife has been known to use her Ruth-AnneMJ account. So we may edit from the same network location.
Articles
The extent of my involvement in these articles varies — from major editing and almost complete rewrites, to simply adding references to an already excellent page or helping to establish notability. Drive-by-edits, however, where I add just a couple of references or make some small changes, don't make the list — if the article is here, I'm hoping to make some sort of significant input. I've listed them here mostly so that I can get quick access to them when required. I'm also listing the status of the articles, so that I can keep track, but this doesn't mean that I'm claiming credit for the status: it may simply be that it was already a good or featured article, but I added extra information here and there. Plus, the single coolest aspect of Wikipedia, from my perspective, is that articles are collaborative endeavors. :)

Recently completed
"Recently Completed" doesn't mean "now at Featured status" so much as "I don't think I can find anything else to add at the moment". These are articles which I feel I can put aside for a bit, unless I stumble across some extra sources with which to expand them further.
Future projects
The following articles are ones which I hope to work on in the future. My general policy is that I shouldn't vote to keep an article at AfD unless I'm also willing to help develop the article, (noting that it might not need my help), so some of these are ones which need work but survived AfD, and some are just articles which I'd rather like to work on when time permits.
