If you receive an email claiming to be from me and offering to help write your Wikipedia article (possibly for pay) - this is a scam. Please report the email as spam.
I'm a Wikipedian based in the UK. My contributions here are primarily to articles on video games and scientists, you can find a list of the articles I've created or done any major work on below. I edit an assortment of articles which take my interest in addition to these. As an admin I tend to contribute at AfD, CSD, and on edit filters.
I also work on The Wikipedia Library and Moderator Tools (where we are currently working on Automoderator) at the Wikimedia Foundation, for which I may edit from Samwalton9 (WMF). Edits, statements, or other contributions made from this account are my own, and may not reflect the views of the Foundation.
If you want to ask me a question or otherwise speak to me please feel free to post on my talk page. If you think there is an obvious (policy based!) reason to revert an admin action I've taken then go ahead - don't feel required to ask me first, but please let me know if you've done so.
I have some alternative accounts which I use(d) for various testing purposes, a currently inactive bot account SW9Bot, and a doppelgänger account Sam Walton.
An orange tick denotes that another editor was responsible for the Did You Know/Good Article/Featured Article.
Other contributions
[edit]
These are articles or pages that I feel I contribute(d) to significantly.

Valued Picture Barnstar | |
| For your contribution that may very well prove to be the final piece in the Dota 2 GAN puzzle, I award you the Valued Picture Barnstar. After creating and editing the article for two years, I believe we may be at that impasse we have only hoped for. Thank you. DarthBotto talk•cont 22:47, 15 September 2013 (UTC) |

The Edit Filter Barnstar |
| I would like to present to you this highly specialized barnstar. You began clearing out the years old requested filters backlog, initiated the edit filter mailing list, and made the long-overdue guideline a reality. Thank you for all of your considerable efforts to improve edit filter management across the project. — MusikAnimal talk 17:41, 16 October 2015 (UTC) |

| This award is given to Samwalton9 for collecting more than 20 points doing redirect reviews, in the May 2023 NPP backlog reduction drive. Thank you for your help in bringing down the backlog. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 01:40, 5 June 2023 (UTC) |
If the community thinks I've done something so wrong that I can no longer be trusted with the administrator toolset (through the consensus of a well participated discussion at an appropriate noticeboard such as WP:AN or WP:ANI), then I will happily resign my sysop rights.
