[[User:Mfc|mfc]] is [[Mike Cowlishaw]] (M. F. Cowlishaw).
I'm a retired [[IBM Fellow]] and also a sometime Visiting Professor at the Department of Computer Science at the [[University of Warwick]] ({{coord|52|23|01|N|1|33|37|W|display=inline|region:GB}}); for more about me, please see:
[http://speleotrove.com/mfc/ <tt>http://speleotrove.com/mfc/</tt>].  There's also a [[Mike Cowlishaw|WikiPedia article]] about me, which is reasonably accurate (as of this writing). 

I have mostly contributed to existing Wikipedia articles in the general area of computing and computer arithmetic.  Articles which I &#8216;founded&#8217; include [[Algorism]], [[Battle of El Mazuco]], [[Densely Packed Decimal]], [[El Mazuco]], [[Fabada Asturiana]], (much of) [[IEEE 754 revision]] and [[IEEE floating point]], [[Llanes]], [[Meré]], [[Significand]], and [[Wallace Breem]].

I've contributed a few of my photographs to Wikipedia, including:
