For the most part, I just do small edits (especially adding links) to preexisting articles. However, I have written a few of my own. They're admittedly not great; I just hope that Wikipedians even nerdier than I will come along and improve it.
If I make any typos, please have mercy on me. I'm using an obsolete Asus laptop running Windows 8.
If you'd like, you can look at what I've uploaded to Wikimedia Commons here
As of August 21 of 2025, there's over a million views on pages I've edited!
Unfortunately, Wikipedia does have one major issue.

Articles I've started (and the rationale for writing on such absurd topics)
[edit]- Château de Picomtal - I was annoyed by a red link on Joachim Martin.
- Nueva Montaña Quijano - I was annoyed by a red link on Authi.
- HMS Unicorn (1776) - Annoyed by a red link on... Some article or another. (The article is much, much improved from what I wrote. Ship nerds are a productive folk.)
- Purington Paving Brick Company - I saw some Purington Pavers whilst in Peoria, and found the company's history to be almost interesting-ish. Actually, a few of the pictures on the article are ones I took myself!
- Lizzie the Elephant - I noticed her mentioned in Thomas William Ward (industrialist), althought there were no details provided. SO obviously i had to waste a few hours writing an article about her!
- DeKalb Commercial Body Corporation - I discovered the company in this article and thought the company could use a Wikipedia article. Maybe it's just the sources I used (I'm looking at YOU, coachbuilt.com), but I really, truly despised writing this article. And I've written articles about ௪ǚʔқનດᓯ BRICKS.
- De Criol - I saw the name mentioned on Eynsford Castle, but found there was no page for the name that several mildly notably English nobles had.
What I'm Currently Working On
[edit]Adding an image to every article I can that's listed in List of defunct automobile manufacturers of the United States that does not already have one.

On 21 August 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Lizzie (elephant), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Thos. W. Ward Ltd. used camels and an elephant named Lizzie (pictured) to replace horses during World War I? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Lizzie the Elephant. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Lizzie (elephant)), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
