My name is Alex Stringer and I am a recent edition to the wikipedia editing community. I am currently studing for my GCSE's at Lutterworth College. With the ambition of joining the RAF as an officer after completing my A-Levels in English, Mathamatics and Physics.
My main areas of interest are; Military, Science and Sports. Although I do enjoy watching team sports such as football and rugby, I prefer to play sports which I refer to as Interlectual. Sports such as judo and cricket which involve much more brains than brawn.
My first edit on wikipedia was a youtube link (which was promptly removed my the copyright "bot") on the TAR-21. Since my trail by fire I have tried to make one or two contributions per day. Many of my recent edits have been on CERN's page with most being on the recent LHC activities.
Type the first couple of letters in the username box: wait 15-seconds and the box will magically appear with usernames starting with that letter combination
If the username is still not there, type in another letter and wait. Usernames are case, punctuation, and space sensitive, so if a username is CamelCased, has punctuation, or has spaces, you will have to try those variations too.
If you have ever conversed with them, you could check the histories of your own talk page and talk page archives. Set your view to (500).
In your contributions, you could limit the namespace to user talk, and that would give you the names of all the users you have posted to on their talk pages. The same with the talk namespace (via your contributions).
You could also search the talk namespace for your own signature, to locate the threads where others may have replied to you
Where do they hang out? What are they renowned for? If you can remember where they have posted messages, then you can find their username.
