From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hi my name is Stu West. I've been an editor on the English Wikipedia since 2003 and logged in since 2007. My edits reflect habits from university, when I studied history and edited an international affairs magazine: I'm zealous about sources and strive for consistent, precise prose. I live with my wife and daughters in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I am an inconsistent guitar student.

Over the years I've done a variety of things for work, from being an Emergency Medical Technician to serving at the U.S. delegation to the United Nations to banking to being a public-company Chief Financial Officer. I feel most at home where I've ended up, on the business side of Silicon Valley working at small fun organizations on things that really excite me.
From 2008 to 2015 I served on the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation.
I was born in the U.S. to an English father and an American mother and am a citizen of both. I love travel and have visited, and made friends in, over 50 countries.
