In good government, the object of voting is not to enable every man to express his ego, but to represent his interest, whether or not he casts his vote personally and directly. --Russell Kirk, commenting on Edmund Burke
Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build a bridge even where there is no river. --Nikita Khruschev

I have been a Wikipedian on the English Wikipedia since August 24, 2003, and a English Wikipedia sysop since September 30, 2004. I was elected an arbitrator on January 23, 2006, but I resigned this post on February 19, 2006. On March 23, 2006, I was entrusted with CheckUser access. I have been editing the Simple English Wikipedia since February 1, 2007, and I hope to someday be a sysop here, as well.

My primary areas of interest are the British peerage, mid-nineteenth century British politics, and the intellectual history of the Kaiserreich army. Sometimes I upload pictures that I've taken while travelling abroad; I've included a few at right. I've also been known to clear up the random Star Wars-related article that floats my way.

I have an abiding love for the idea of open encyclopedia edited by everyone. To me, it aims at the heights envisioned by Hegel and John Stuart Mill; total knowledge based upon the foundation of as many voices as possible. If that is your goal then you are my ally in this endeavour.

My real name is Charles and I graduated from Kalamazoo College in 2005. I'm married, employed, and a loyal fan of the Detroit Tigers (this was the year!) Further details are not forthcoming because my private existence is utterly boring and unimportant (really, it is, and I defy anyone to prove otherwise).


Yes, I'm Mackensen on meta.
