User:MaterialSquirrel
Hi there, I'm a zine reader (and occasional zine creator), library worker, and wiki enthusiast based in the United States. I joined the ZineWiki and became an admin in 2023. My projects include helping to get rid of spam, adding new content, and organizing existing content through categories. -MaterialSquirrel (talk) 19:36, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

Spam deletion
In August 2023 I deleted tens of thousands of spam pages from the ZineWiki and blocked tens of thousands of spam user accounts--hopefully all of them! If you discover that I have deleted a page from the ZineWiki in error (i.e., it wasn't spam), please leave a message on my talk page and I will fix it. I am a mere mortal and am bound to have made some mistakes. <3
