my My blog is [http://pistevo.livejournalblogspot.com/ αλλά αμαρτωλούς εις μετάνοιανChanters Pray Twice] (''but sinners to repentance'' or ''but sinners a reference to a complete turnaround''[[Augustine of Hippo|St Augustine]] quote), where you can find out more about me. , albeit in a fairly diving-in-the-deep-end kinda way. I also have a [[w:User:Pistevo|userpage]] with a lot of userboxes on [[w:Main_Page|Wikipedia]].
i I am an Orthodox residing in australiaAustralia, hence my interest in the [[Orthodoxy in Australasia|Church in australia Australia and its near neighbours]]. noticing Noticing the lack of information about Orthodoxy in australia Australia on OrthodoxWiki, i I decided that the situation wasn't going to improve without personally doing something about it. A similar motivation was involved in adopting the featured articles (particularly as I seem to have exhausted most available information about Australasia), and in deciding to write up important biographies, particularly of ascetics (mainly because those are available to me).
On 14/July/05, i was made a sysop of OrthodoxWiki; while being sysop of OrthodoxWiki(and doing all the associated duties), special attention has been given to my pet topic of Orthodoxy in Australasia. I have put a page up brief listing of [[User:Pistevo/meta|my OrthodoxWiki philosophy]].
I have had three articles that I began, and/or largely wrote, made into feature articles: [[Orthodoxy in Australasia]] (15 July 2005, since split into [[Orthodoxy in Australia]] and [[Orthodoxy in New Zealand]] due to excess size), St [[Irene Chrysovalantou]] (28 April 2006) and Elder [[Joseph the Hesychast]] (4 November 2006). A list of my contributions can be found [[Special:Contributions/Pistevo|here]]. I have made ''2449 [[User:ASDamick/counter.js|edits]]'' on OrthodoxWiki (at [[July 26]], 2006), including ''195 template edits'', indicating my construction of a number of templates for use in Australasia and Oceania.
