All the Personal Information You'll Get Here
[edit]Name: daid
Academic Background
[edit]I work at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams at Michigan State University. I generally edit physics articles or make small edits elsewhere. When I was a graduate student and Wikipedia was young, I was known for writing entire articles.
These databases show my work history:
- ORCID: 0000-0003-3368-7307
- SOA Astrophysics Data System (approximate query)
- Scopus: 27667642000
- Web of Science: AAR-4226-2021
I am also the editor of a book: Stellar Evolution, Nuclear Astrophysics, and Nucleogenesis.
My interest in Wikipedia
[edit]There are many reasons I am interested in contributing to Wikipedia. I use Wikipedia myself, and found that, in my field of research, many articles are either very sparse or entirely absent. So, I felt that this was a good way to give back to the community by editing articles on subjects which I can claim to have some expertise. The articles I primarily contribute to are on topics that I have read a lot of literature on and/or have experience using (for equipment, experimental methods, or physics). My own primary research is not noteworthy enough for inclusion, and so I feel there is no conflict of interest conforming to Wikipedia standards.
I am also a proponent of free information, from the GPL to the GFDL, and this information can only exist when those with access to the information are willing to provide it free of charge.
Further, writing about subjects forces one to organize one's thinking in a logical and accessible manner, and so it seems fairly impossible to write about any subject without learning more in the process.
Other Interests
[edit]I am a user of Linux and advocate of both free software and open source software. I enjoy DJing downtempo music, but mostly around my house. I am known from time-to-time to play Magic the Gathering, GemStone IV, and Ultimate Frisbee.
