My name is Michele Jackson, and I've been a scholar of communication and technology for over 30 years. Currently, I am a professor at Michigan State University.

 * Returned to Mobile driver's license. Happy to see that my revisions stuck! (With some grammar cleanup by others, thanks!). No objection made to renaming the page, so I asked if there was consensus. I'll learn how to rename, and if no response within a week, I will go ahead with it.
 * I see that my suggestion for page deletion was accepted. That boosts my confidence!
 * Reviewed the collaboration page. I can see room for significant improvements, and will probably create a draft on a personal page before editing the current page. It doesn't have a coherent structure and most editing was done several years ago.

 * WayPoint 200 Mobile Crossing. Ended up proposing for deletion. Even that took some time, because I first researched whether or not there was enough information out there to possibly warrant a page if someone took the time to write one.
 * Mobile driver's license. Revised paragraph 1 and 2. Took more time than anticipated because it's also about checking the information and updating it, not simply revising the wording.

From March 16, 2013 to Feb 27, 2014, I added research on broad areas of communication and technology to relevant pages, completing 70 edits on 68 pages. Mainly, I added information from relevant recent research published in the communication discipline. Sometimes I also helped with writing to make information on the page more clear.
