Greetings. The name's Walkazo (big surprise there). I'm a [[Special:Listusers/bureaucrat|Bureaucrat]] here on the Super Mario Wiki, so feel free to ask me anything (within reason) and I'll do my best to help you out. I joined the wiki in 2007 along with my brother, who shared my account for a few months before I kicked him out. His name's [[User:Pantaro Paratroopa|Pantaro]], but he left the wiki years ago, so don't bother trying to call him up.

Now about me... Well, I'm a 20-year-old girl from Toronto, Canada, and I'm currently studying at university to be an [[wikipedia:Ornithology|ornithologist]] - although I'm interested in many other branches of zoological science as well, like genetics and evolution. I also love ''Mario'' stuff (obviously), although I sympathize with {{fakelink|Bowser}} much more than the titular plumber himself, and split my computer time between editing the wiki and writing Koopa-centric [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1187666/Walkazo fanfiction]. Around the wiki, I try my best to keep track of [[MarioWiki:Proposals|Proposals]] and other such policy debates, and while most of my edits are maintenance work, if I come across poorly written articles on my rounds, I usually sit down and try to fix it. One pet-project I have on the go is to mash as many of the games as I can into one comprehensive timeline that goes along with my fanfiction. I already made [http://walkazo.livejournal.com/pics/catalog/292/10631 a (partial) world map], although I had to tweak or completely ignore quite a few in-game maps to make it work. Another thing I'm working on is an evolutionary chart for all the Koopas, including Bowser's species (which I call {{fakelink|Dragon-Koopas}}, seeing as an ''official'' name hasn't actually been made yet).

Between my editing, writing, work and my education, I don't have as much time as I'd like to play the actual video games themselves, but I manage to squeeze a few in here and there, and I'm always on the lookout for new titles to add to my collection. My favourite games are ''Super Mario World'', ''Super Mario Bros. Deluxe'', ''Super Paper Mario'', ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' and, because the Super Scope is awesome, ''Yoshi's Safari''.

Greetings. The name's Walkazo (big surprise there). I'm a Bureaucrat here on the Super Mario Wiki, so feel free to ask me anything (within reason) and I'll do my best to help you out. I joined the wiki in 2007 along with my brother, who shared my account for a few months before I kicked him out. His name's Pantaro, but he left the wiki years ago, so don't bother trying to call him up.

Now about me... Well, I'm a 21-year-old girl from Toronto, Canada, and I'm currently studying at university to be an ornithologist - although I'm interested in many other branches of zoological science as well, like genetics and evolution. I also love Mario stuff (obviously), although I sympathize with Template:Fakelink much more than the titular plumber himself, and split my computer time between editing the wiki and writing Koopa-centric fanfiction. Around the wiki, I try my best to keep track of Proposals and other such policy debates, and while most of my edits are maintenance work, if I come across poorly written articles on my rounds, I usually sit down and try to fix it. One pet-project I have on the go is to mash as many of the games as I can into one comprehensive timeline that goes along with my fanfiction. I already made a (partial) world map, although I had to tweak or completely ignore quite a few in-game maps to make it work. Another thing I'm working on is an evolutionary chart for all the Koopas, including Bowser's species (which I call Template:Fakelink, seeing as an official name hasn't actually been made yet).

Between my editing, writing, work and my education, I don't have as much time as I'd like to play the actual video games themselves, but I manage to squeeze a few in here and there, and I'm always on the lookout for new titles to add to my collection. My favourite games are Super Mario World, Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, Super Paper Mario, Mario Kart: Double Dash!! and, because the Super Scope is awesome, Yoshi's Safari.

In case you couldn't read my atrocious handwriting, the title was "Bowser and the Transformation of MM294".

My Grade 12 Biology class once did a lab where we put plasmids containing jellyfish DNA (as pGLO plasmids) into E. coli bacteria (a strain called MM294), making them able to glow green under UV light. Instead of doing a monotonous lab report, our teacher had us use a creative medium to explain what we did in the lab and our results; I chose to do a fanfiction, and this is the title page is to the right.

So far, I've written two sections for The 'Shroom and submitted one Sketch of the Month. The articles and a couple images are as follows:

Stupid Stuff

Some stuff that I found funny at the time. YMMV.

  • "World 4: Tropical rain forest with intoxicated waters." - Template:Color-link-piped
  • "Name in other languajes" - Irony.
  • "Shadoo could also be Dark Link." - Template:Color-link-piped
  • "In Mario Party 6, Wario and Toadette's team name is named Secret Friends. This may refer that Wario and Toadette were once friends, secretly." - Yeah, they were coworkers at the Department of Redundancy Department.
  • "In Super Mario 64 DS, the star is the same as if it was gotten in the original version of the game that can be gotten in the original way." - It's not so much funny as it is painful.
