Nate SilvaHi, I'm Nate. My primary contributions are copyediting and finding pages that should be deleted. I've also been known to shrink large graphics with pngcrush (http://pmt.sourceforge.net/pngcrush/) to save Wikipedia a few bytes. I've written several pages about my hometown, Portland, Oregon.
