Heyo, I'm jamjam. The 'Svn' just means seven. I seemingly cannot spell the word received, even when I try.

My time on Wikipedia

I created this account a good while before I started editing with any pace, making my first edit to the article Haruhi Fujioka on 30 July 2021. From 2020 I began making edits very frequently on Fandom wikis (which I have now abandoned due to their bad business practices), creating the 1600 page Aunty Donna Wiki. I am also interested in board games, and seeing the need for more articles on that topic, I began to edit more. On August 29, 2022, I wrote my first article about Oath: Chronicles of Empire and Exile, my all-time favourite board game. I published my tenth article, Norwich Pride, on 15 June 2023, and my first good article was Greenpeace Lyng GM maize action which reached that status on 27 March 2024. My fiftieth article was on British musician Master Peace.

Over my time here, I've developed strange obsessions with the topics of the articles I edit. I like the silly stuff; viral phenomena and internet memes, Australian comedy despite not being Australian, and board games all tickle my fancy. I sometimes edit articles on music I love, and in a more serious approach I like to expand Wikipedia's wealth of information on Norfolk heritage as well as LGBT history and the less public-facing side of British politics.

Doctor Who is a love of mine, and while WikiProject Doctor Who do a great job at keeping things up to date I was able to publish an article on Doctor Who: Unleashed. The show has been a part of me since I was a kid, and it's honestly where I've acquired a lot of my personal value system. I'm in the process of watching the entirety of the classic era of the show, missing episodes and all; currently, I'm on season 7. Additionally, I've recently got into editing TARDIS Wiki.

I love these things

One partially silly obsession I've gained here has been lecterns, to the point that I seem to be the main lectern person at the moment on the site. I've never come across another type of furniture for which every notable instance has an interesting and storied history with so many twists and turns. It surprises me how little people have edited on this topic; I had to add the articles on both the 10 Downing Street lecterns and the presidential lecterns of the United States! Every single one I've come across has had something strange, funny or telling about society happen to it. I think it might be because they are close to people who have power, like politicians or religious leaders. They can also be expensive, which makes them easy to get caught up in crime. I'm currently investigating how many of these lecterns there have been over the years.
