Greetings. I am Canaen, and I give what I can to this Wikipedia. When I'm online, I tend to watch my [[Watchlist]] like a [[Red-tailed Hawk|Hawk]]. I write and edit fairly often here, but I don't like listing things that I've created or made significant contributions to. Right now, I'm mostly working on things related to the [[Wikipedia:Scottish Wikipedians' notice board|Scottish Wikipedians' notice board]], and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Scotland|WikiProject Scotland]].

==I'm a Celt==
I come from [[Gaels|Gaelic]] [[Clan Fraser|Frasers]] of [[Scotland]], [[Scots-Irish]], [[Irish people|Irish]], [[Switzerland|Swiss]]-[[German people|Germans]], [[Prussia|Prussians]], and various other [[Europe|Europeans]]. The words of [[Emcee Lynx|Lynx]], with an add by me:

''"Just because [[Racist]] [[United States|Amerikka]] says I look like y'all [[Whites|cracker asses]],'' <br>
''Doesn't make me one of you.'' <br>
''So don't you '''EVER''' call me [[Anglo-Saxon|Anglo]],'' <br>
''Or try to put me in your box.'' <br>
''Cuz I'm not.'' <br>
''And i'm not havin' it.'' <br>
''I'm a [[Celt]].'' <br>
''I'm a [[Gaels|Gael]].''<br>
''And I'm proud of that.''

==Contacting Me==
Leaving a message on my [[User_talk:Canaen|talk page]] will usually grab my attention, but if you wish to send me a private message, or don't like the talk page, or whatever, feel free to [[Special:Emailuser/Canaen|email me]]. I'd prefer you to use my [[User_talk:Canaen|talk page]] if it's at all possible.

I'm Canaen while on [[Freenode]] ([[IRC]]); leave me a memo sometime.

==Life and Times==
I just felt like having a section with this title.

==WikiProjects==
As you can see, I'm a member of several [[Wikipedia:WikiProject|WikiProject]]s. I do not pretend to be an active participant in all of them, and indeed am primarily active only in [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Scotland|WikiProject Scotland]]. I am interested in the others as well, and strive to make valuable contributions to them when I have time.

==Other Languages and Wikis==
I maintain user accounts on other Wikipedias as well, though they are much less active. They are as follows:
