Hi there! My username is Meaghan, which is my middle name. My first name is Natalie; you can call me whichever one you want. I've been an editor here on Wikipedia since June 28, 2009; I originally
edited as "Midnight Comet", but I was renamed in October 2009.
I spend the majority of my time on Wikipedia patrolling the recent changes, however you'll sometimes see me editing articles related to Survivor, whether it be minor improvements, or writing episode summaries. I am a member of the the Survivor Task Force, a small group of editors dedicated to improving Survivor related articles.
I am a great believer in WikiLove, so don't be surprised if you see me awarding other users barnstars, or posting WikiLove templates like my own here. Who knows, I may give one to you.
You are welcome to edit this page, just as long as you run any major changes by me first. If you have trouble editing the page, let me know what changes you were planning on making, and I'll do them for you. (I use a method to prevent vandalism that could throw some users off, depending on which browser you're using. Even I get thrown off sometimes!)

Funny quotes (you are welcome to add!)

Tonsillitis is just a made up disease created by Dr. John J. Tonsillitis. Dr. Tonsillitis made up the disease soon after his cousin, Dr. Jacob Polio, discovered polio. Dr. Tonsillitis was immensely jealous of all the attention his cousin had received, and was later diagnosed with makestuffupitis.
But if medical treatments then were crude, the illnesses were even more so. That's to say, it wasn't until great visionaries like Sir Joseph Typhus and Dr William Bubo came along that the development of serious disorders began to show real promise.
"That I have now developed the nasty disease I have been searching for all these years, I am now convinced. My one problem remains how best to spread it... I am now certain that the plague may in fact be spread by rats. All it requires is one simple bite to transfer it to the human body."
And so, for fourteen years, Bubo waited patiently for someone to bite a rat.
By now, Typhus and Bubo had opened the floodgates and, in the years that followed, the perfection of new and more virulent complaints advanced by leaps and bounds with the work of people like Louis Gangrene, Madame Scurvy, Sir Hubert Cholera and Jan van der Measles. It was in Rouen, however, that two young French chemists, the brothers Armand and Gilbert Mump, were still struggling to find an effective disease of the neck...

It's funny that pirates were always going around searching for treasure, and they never realized that the real treasure was the fond memories they were creating.
^I have four of them. The one from Rlevse is under "Midnight Comet".
^When I was renamed, 500 of my edits weren't moved from "Midnight Comet" to "Meaghan". Therefore, some edit counters may display a number that's lower than the one on the userbox. The popups edit counter counts both sets of edits.
