Welcome to Adwiii's User Page. If you came to talk please leave me a message my talk page
Do you need a UBX?
I will make any User Box by request, just for you.

Leave a request on my talk page with what you want and I will have a User Box back to you as soon as I can.
I have already made 32User Boxes. You can see them here or search below.
If you came to vandalize my page please feel free to move the vandalism counter (above) up by one. Any true vandalism will be immediately reverted.
Things I find useful
General Info
I am a huge UNC fan.
And even though I am a huge fan I have done my best to keep a Neutral Point of View.
If you believe this is not so please leave a message on my talk page and I will be glad to fix it. Thanks.
I would also like to say my signature on Wikipedia is  Adwiii  Talk 
Anyone else using the username Adwiii on Wikipedia is not me.
I lost The Game, and now you have too your welcome :).

This editor is an
Apprentice Editor
and is entitled to display this Service Badge.

One of my WikiHobbies (if this isn't already a term i am coining it) is to "collect" User boxes that I find on Wikipedians User Pages.

Currently my favorite UBX (that isn't mine) is this, as I a self-proclaimed monopoly entrepreneur.
This user passed GO!
(…so where is my $200?)



I would also like to say, if you are looking through my edit summaries looking at what I have done, yes indeed I do spend a great deal of time reverting vandalism, making my user page look perfect, and even more time taking care of my pet peeve, dead wikilinks. Although I admit I do spend a lot of time taking care of such matters that does not mean I don't contribute encyclopedic content as well. As you can see below I have made three articles, and one of them even made DYK.

He ascended into heaven,
And sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

The Forgiveness of sins;
The Resurrection of the body,

Amen.

The Resilient Barnstar
For always reacting positively to suggestions and criticism, and thereby improving your additions to The Academy at Lincoln from the early dubious primary sources to the recent heady heights of proper reference works obtained through inter-library requests.

For discovering my final Adopt-a-User exam early and thus allowing myself even more time to prepare for it, Worm That Turned has allowed me to give myself the Hidden Barnstar for my inquisitive spirit, essential for a good Wikipedian.  Adwiii  Talk  18:47, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

The Rosetta Barnstar
For your ongoing efforts to make Wikipedia more comprehensible to people who find difficulty understanding unclear use of colour, I give you this barnstar because accessibility is even more important than translation, for some people.
