Hi Rupert, thanks for trimming the E-mail (which some people previously failed to do - I really hate top-posting), and for your thoughtful criticism. Allow me to address it below.

At the moment I'm in a state, where I exhibit some Narcissism , a bit more self-centeredness (while still being in a “do-stuff for other people” mood), and maybe even a bit of ego-mania . It's called http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypomania . I can still handle it and it's ultimately up to me to get out, but I can appear a bit too self-promoting in my Internet communications, so I apologise for that, and should have some more self-control and maintain a lower profile. I'll address the other issues you note in a separate message, which I'd like to write tomorrow, but now I'm tired, hungry, and have some other priorities to tend to. I will say that it is quite a bit more innocent than you think and not really some kind of my Evil™ plan to take over the world by mentioning my name on Wikimedia-related resources. Thanks again.
