I have a wide range of interests, but my primary interest is probably history, and history articles are what I spend most of my time on. I am also a regular contributor to DYK, where my primary activities these days are reviewing submissions and contributing to DYK discussions. |

For a long time I eschewed article awards like GA, A-class and FA, as I considered them to be largely a waste of everyone's time. Also, I feel that FA standards have dropped a great deal in the four years I have been a contributor to Misplaced Pages. Recently however, it occurred to me that Good Articles perform a function in that they inform our readership of articles that are considered to be better quality. So I have decided to submit some of my articles to that process. I received my first (and so far only) GA award in July 2010. Although some of my articles might well pass FAC these days, I have my doubts that I will ever submit one because none of them quite pass my ''own'' standard of "best possible quality", for a variety of reasons. |

I formally registered as a Wikipedian in April 2006, but had used, enjoyed, admired and occasionally edited Wiki as an unregistered user for a year or two prior to that.
I have a wide range of interests, but my primary interest is probably history, and history articles are what I spend most of my time on. I am also a regular contributor to DYK, where my primary activities these days are reviewing submissions and contributing to DYK discussions.
In the event that I become inactive for a period of six months or more without explanation, I hereby give permission for any user in good standing to work on or complete any articles in my sandbox and to move them to mainspace, or to utilize their content in the content of other articles.
