Wikipedia:WikiProjects that I started
Things I do sometimes, or often
- Look at vfd debates that have been around longer than five days, and try to make a decision on what to do on them
- Look at Wikipedia:Most wanted articles and write articles that take my fancy.
- Look at Special:Newpages and wikify the "ok, but not great stuff". Sometimes I speedily delete the real dross, but I rarely bother to put borderline stuff on VfD.. it's a hassle and someone else always does it anyway
- Look at and respond to suggestions at the village pump (I like repeating myself you see!)
- Mumble and grumble at proliferation of boxes and categories on policy pages.
- Keep expanding coverage about whales and related topics
- Keep expanding coverage about UK minor celebrities
Things I don't do, or rarely do
- Look at Recentchanges. Too great a proportion of the edits are too trivial... newpages suffers less from this.
- Look at Vandalism in progress. We have enough people monitoring this.
- Look at Requests for adminship. We have more than enough people monitoring this.
- Look at Requests for comment/mediation/arbitration. If you let it, it will eat up all your WP time.
Public thanks
- User:Vicki Rosenzweig who has tirelessly copy edited several of my articles which were full of silly errors. User:Deb has done the same.
- User:Cyan, User:Cimon Avaro and User:Oliver Pereira who all very kindly supported my request for adminship.
- User:Fredrik, User:Tannin, User:Fantasy and User:Maveric149 for expressions of support for some of the bits and pieces I have been doing.
- User:Cyrius who guided me through my initial play-time with user styles.
