Me![edit]
I'm vivrolfe (Viv, @vivienrolfe) and I'm interested in open education and science. My background is in the pet food industry and academia. I'm presently a researcher in herbal science, and previously worked in science departments of UK universities. I'm a jazz musician so will be interesting in helping Wikipedia support writing articles on female musicians. Musicians that I like:
- Ivy Benson
- Nina Simone
- Ella Fitzgerald
Pets[edit]
I have a spaniel called Spike.
Editing sections[edit]
I hopefully will therefore contribute to the following pages on herbal medicines and open educational resources:
Andrographis paniculata#Alternative medicine (added new biological and clinical evidence to the alternative medicine section).
Rosemary - just putting some information onto this page with a visiting student who is interested in rosemary.
What I'm doing next![edit]
Adding to existing pages to update references and text.
Equally getting a bit pissed off that some of the other wikipedia editors do not recognise clinical trials or systematic reviews as evidence. I think I'll give up with Wikipedia now. Few weeks later - we edited the rosemary page and the sentence has not been removed yet, so maybe...
