Why I Wiki---My Contributions Article Ideas---Draft Page



I am Coinmanj, I'm a Wikipedian from Murfreesboro, TN. I use Wikipedia a lot, and usually contribute by making small corrections to pages or adding references...with the occasional large edit.

I supported Ron Paul for president in 2008 and 2012. I was the secretary of the Rutherford County Campaign for Liberty and was the treasurer of the Rutherford County Young Republicans for 2013-14.

I also have Asperger's, and for me that includes an obsession with numbers and data. So, I've kept track of all my edits and to-date I have contributed over 1,129 kilobyte's worth of text edits to Wikipedia (includes talk & user pages). Coinmanj (talk) 01:28, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia Work
For more information on the articles I have created, about the articles to which I have greatly contributed, and other OCD-ish stats of mine please see here.

I also participate in these "cleanup" projects from time to time: fixing redundant parameters, and dead-end pages

Citizen Science Projects
I also take part in a number of "citizen science" projects either through direct personal involvement or using distributed computing.

I am/have been apart of: Stardust@home with over 2,200 samples classified (see my Duster of the Month interview) NASA's Be A Martian Seti@Home Galaxy Zoo Folding@home World Community Grid I participate in a total of 12 Zooniverse projects and have made over 6,700 classifications.

Other Projects
Aside from my domestic political work I am also taking part in a project aimed at mapping the whole of North Korea, its monuments, military sites, economic areas and other places. So far I have marked over 53,000 new places. I've decided to use my knowledge of North Korea to help out in the NK working group here on Wiki.

Here's my "book" of DPRK related Wiki articles which covers its history, military, economy, human rights and much more. (contains 142 articles)

I also have a similar mapping project for my home state of Tennessee and I've marked around 2,700 places.

Blogs
I have a political blog covering Murfreesboro and Rutherford County. There's my blog dealing with North Korea. I can't stand the constant myths & rumors that fly around the Internet and so I've created a myth busting blog that tackles myths I encounter on my Facebook page. It is fairly popular, at times receiving over 20k reads a month. And finally, my personal blog. It has a lot of my thoughts on politics, philosophy etc.

Ancestry
I am a descendant of Revolutionary War veteran Alexander Ewing, the builder of the historic Alexander Ewing House in Nashville, TN. I'm also a descendant of James T. Bird (1815-1906) and Timothy Allison (1808-1862), both Confederate soldiers during the Civil War, Otis Bogle who served during the Korean War, and Jerry Bogle who served during Vietnam.
