About me: Well, lets see, I'm about yay high, feathers, beak, feet.
I do a lot of helping out at the Copyright Problems board, and the CopyPatrol tool. The admins and volunteers who work those pages have entrusted me as a clerk there, for which I am grateful to have earned their trust. <plug>(We could use help there if you're looking for something to do!)</plug>
I also do a fair amount of patrol type stuff, though I have started a couple of articles and did some major re-write for others. You can see all that below, along with the files I've added. Someday I'll add some photos that I've taken as well.
Personally, I'm a fan of classic oratory and rhetoric, as well as Shakespeare and Socrates. Which means I've been known to drop some Latin, Greek, or iambic pentameter when appropriate. There's an Internet rule somewhere about people who quote Latin at you, so I do try to keep it to a minimum!
Lastly, there are a lot of "User:Crow"s on the Internet. Don't assume that any of them are me.
Crows like shiny things! Here are some of mine which people have given me.
The originals are in my Talk Page, or archives thereof...
The Special Barnstar
Thanks for your prompt explanations on the First Colonial High School talk page. It seems that your patient and cogent explanations defused some anger which should not have been aimed at Wikipedia or enforcement of Wikipedia policies. You brought a calm, neutral voice to the situation which was much more valuable than my reappearance many hours later would have been. Donner60 (talk) 01:44, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
The Original Barnstar

The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
Thanks for the helpful information you provided over at Moonriddengirl's talk page with regards to the Project Rebirth article here. Its always nice to know that people care enough to lend a hand for their fellow contributors even if the request for assistance is on someone else's talk page. Try not to lose the kind heart while you edit the Wikipedia site, one editor with a kind heart is worth all gold in the world. TomStar81 (Talk) 21:42, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for helping an editor on my talk page in my absence and doing it with such compassion. :) Moonriddengirl(talk) 13:30, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi Crow. I'm dropping by just to thank you for your work on edit filters. Your work has been immensely helpful at countering some of our most persistent vandals and spammers on Wikipedia. You're awesome, so keep doing what you do! Mz7 (talk) 23:16, 26 September 2017 (UTC)
