What I Do on Wikipedia

In my early days of Wikipedia, I did a lot of vandalism reversion through special:recentchanges. I've come to do a lot less of that nowadays. I don't really focus on any one area, instead doing a hodgepodge of tasks. I focus a lot on academia (from universities to standardized tests), as well as doing some work in politics (although I've found that — not at all surprisingly — these are hotbeds of POV, bad faith, and even sockpuppetry). I still do a lot of vandalism reversion through my watchlist, but I also add in bits and pieces of information to articles, whenever I find a good source. Resources like Flickr and federal government websites have given me great tools to find acceptably licensed material to illustrate articles. I also do a lot of small tasks here and there, like fixing typos, finding geographic coördinates, and improving citations. I'm generally happy to help out if I can, so if you see something that needs doing, don't hesitate to drop me a line

This user thinks that some userboxes could be greatly improved upon but is too lazy to change them.
