Barrychapman, also styled as barrychapmam in lower-case, is another Wikimedia user. He is from Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Typically using his full name as his online moniker, he however has gone by a variety of pseudonym's over his years online:
- aro (Current moniker - formulated from access control list terminology, 'ARO' - meaning 'Access Request Object' - or the object that access is being sought to)
- aneki (Gaming era)
- meltdown (Internet Relay Chat era)
- the chosen one (Bulletin Board System era)
An avid musician, web programmer, software developer, and brand-loyal individual to the Volkswagen family of vehicles - he is also a wary thrillseeker; wary in the sense that he loves rollercoasters (especially Cedar Point), and Walt Disney World, but draws the line at skydiving, until now.
Aside from the regular run-of-the-mill hobbies, he is also fond of Civil Engineering, predominantly anything involving water control.
Sometimes overly outspoken regarding political views and social issues, he does manage to keep an open and unbiased mind to anyone willing to have a down-to-earth conversation without attack. He is passionate about social issues such as Climate Change, Gun Control, and Immigration and open borders.
