User:DNSLOC

Hi, my name is David, and I'm from Brisbane, Australia.

I have donated financially to Wikipedia as I truly believe in it's relevance and usefulness to our education. I encourage you to do the same.

I had recently searched Wikipedia for a term regularly used in my industry, but often the articles quoting that term did not define it. I made a request for the page to be created on Wikipedia, and then I reconsidered and put the effort into creating the page myself.

It has been rewarding to see that page become approved!

I encourage you all to ask yourself if you can contribute knowledge to Wikipedia.

I have been a Wikipedia member since 15:07, 30 March 2011, however it was some time before I had something useful to contribute (that didn't already exist!).

I've now made several small contributions Special:Contributions/DNSLOC.

Thanks for all feedback. I have pasted the template below as recommended by  Yash    t    101 .
