What I Do at & for Wikipedia
Starting in 2005-ish I began gnomishly fixing typos & grammatical problems that bugged me (e.g., comma splices). I also occasionally added little bits of data to articles on occasion, chosen at random from whatever I happen to be looking up that needs attention.

In March 2006 I added a username and began my edits of Wikipedia.

I hope to perform these tasks in general:
 * Organize information - Categorization, organization, and presentation of information in useful ways. Cats, lists, infoboxes; CFD; ((WP:CATP ... WP:CFD ... cats need attn ... people need cats ... no cats (uncatted pages)
 * Writing & editing articles - Substantive work on articles of particular interest to me, from the real to the unreal: science, science fiction, copyright. This includes starting articles that don't exist but should and improving articles. I don't track stars & plusses because I don't OWN articles. (GA noms)
 * Referencing articles - Adding references & further research sections; an encyclopedia is a great place to start research. (WP:REF)
 * Vandal patrol, particularly reverting vandalism on the frequently targeted Wikipedia pages. Vandalism that is racist, misogynistic, or homophobic, is not just disruptive in the ordinary course of affairs, but also discourages contributions to &mdash; and use of &mdash; the encyclopedia. (aiv)
