Hello, I am James Teterenko. I joined Wikipedia on June 2, 2004. I am a Ukrainian Canadian living in Calgary, AB and I work for Husky Energy. I grew up in Winnipeg, Manitoba, graduating from the University of Manitoba.
My article contributions tend to concentrate on Calgary, Winnipeg, and Ukrainian culture. I have also done some work around overall Canadian history. My interest in editing tends to meander. Some days I write full articles, some days stubs, sometimes I search for public domain pictures, others I just fix typos. One day, I was home sick from work and just wrote about hockey history. Whatever I do, I do it with the intent of making this a better Encyclopedia. It has also been a mechanism for me to learn about topics that interest me. I now know a lot more about the various topics noted below than I did a year ago.
I also spend time on the Calgary Wiki (http://calgary.wikicities.com/wiki/Main_Page), a wiki hosted by Wikicities.
Sources
Some interesting sources that I have used are:
- Google (how could I not?) (http://www.google.ca/)
- Dictionary of Canadian Biography Online (http://www.biographi.ca/EN/index.html)
- Library and Archives Canada:Archivia:Photo Search (http://www.collectionscanada.ca/archivianet/020115_e.html)
- Images Canada (http://www.imagescanada.ca/index-e.html)
