From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'm Scottish, of Irish descent. My mum and dad are from County Donegal, Republic of Ireland.
Wikipedia has some notes on my name: Camillus
Date of birth: 6th March 1963.
I was born in Govan, brought up in Clydebank, and have lived in Glasgow since I was 19.
I have a BSc. in Chemical Engineering from University of Strathclyde.
I worked as a college lecturer for 11 years, teaching computing.
I then worked for two years in Guyana as a teacher trainer and resource developer, under the auspices of Voluntary Service Overseas.
Since then I have worked as a computer software writer.
I started by adding minor edits of articles on Celtic F.C., and ex-player Henrik Larrson, Rangers F.C., and ex-Ranger's player Ally McCoist.
Then on some political issues: Leon Trotsky, Joseph Stalin, Lenin's Testament, Nikita Khrushchev, Enver Hoxha, Bill Bland, Harpal Brar, Karl Kautsky, John Maclean MA, Social fascism.
I started articles for Andrei Bubnov, Ivar Smilga, Georgy Pyatakov and Nikolai Muralov, and footballers Sean Fallon, Bobby Lennox, Bertie Auld, Sandy McMahon, and Jimmy McMenemy.
I started the article on Irish-Scots.
This page comfortably survived a vote for deletion.
Also started National Unemployed Workers' Movement, Wal Hannington, and stubs for African-American athletes Cornelius Cooper Johnson, Dave Albritton (just because I saw they were red-links in the Jesse Owens article!).

Created a stub (just to remove a red-link) for Ramelton, a town in County Donegal.
Created some small articles to do with Guyana: Wai-Wai (people), Wapishana, Umana Yana, Bishops' High School, Guyana, Potaro River, Non-Aligned Foreign Ministers Conference, authors Fred D'Aguiar, Roy Heath, Wilson Harris, Pauline Melville, David Dabydeen.
Created articles for 14 Van Morrison, one Only Ones, three Linton Kwesi Johnson albums.
I'm responsible for 43 of the 6,891,638 articles on Wikipedia!
I seem to spend more and more time reverting vandalism to articles, as my watchlist grows!
I think Wikipedia is fab! It's democracy in action, it's a great community, it's great to see your contributions on screen, and it's good fun!
I've been contributing to Wikipedia since 11th November 2005. I changed my name for privacy reasons on Jan 13, 2006, So
My Edit Count only shows edits since then.

Pristimantis elegans is a species of
frog in the family
Strabomantidae. It is endemic to the Colombian Andes, in the
Cordillera Oriental, residing in
páramos and
cloud forests at elevations of 2,600–3,650 m (8,530–11,980 ft) above sea level. It is typically found in herbaceous vegetation and very small bushes.
Pristimantis elegans is a stout-bodied frog, with males typically measuring 37–40 mm (1.5–1.6 in). Development is direct, without a free-living tadpole stage. Males of the species have a pulsed
advertisement call, which is usually carried out at night, in vegetation. This
Pristimantis elegans individual was photographed in
Chingaza National Natural Park, Colombia.
