User:Reflex Reaction/Past work

I am proud of the work that I have contributed to wikipedia. Below is a partial listing of some of the work I've done so far.

Work for WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles
Lists created at WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles
 * Catholic Encyclopedia
 * Hotlist of topics active in creation along with Quadell
 * List of notable albums, list may be revamped with RIAA Gold albums, check also http://www.ifpi.org/site-content/directory/national_groups.html - different countries Recording associations
 * MacTutor archive
 * Colleges and Universities
 * As part of this project I consolidated 30+ templates into a single infobox, see Template items to be deleted and TFD:Infobox Australian University
 * List of notable films
 * List of notable songs
 * US TV Stations
 * US newpapers - international to follow
 * List of notable books

Miscellaneous work

Naming conventions
Working on the notable company list and TV show list, I noticed how inconsistent the naming styles were and worked to get a convention for the two items.


 * Naming conventions (television)
 * Naming conventions (companies)

After the conventions were agreed upon, I moved a number of articles (750+) in accordance with the two naming convention.

List of medical terms
I have compiled four lists of medical terms that can be used as needed on wikipedia. The lists are from copyrighted sources so they cannot be used toto but could be combined for a wikiproject or perhaps a wikimedterms. Leave me a message if you are interested in working with any of these lists. I would work on this, but have been busy with other projects. The list also needs a good deal of prework publishing.

Vandalism
I do mostly watchlist vandalism and revert and warn people when they vandalize pages. I think more than the revert, people respond to the message that they have been noticed. Every now and then I will do some RC patrolling.

New articles
Some I'm proud of, others not so much so, oddly most of the work is not related to Missing Encyclopedic articles
 * Speed wobble - Interesting phenomenon, I fell off real hard riding my skateboard because of this many years ago
 * Washington Monument (Baltimore) - nice place to visit, good views of the city
 * Nelson (band) - I remember their hit song and created only it because they were redlinked
 * Welcome to Wherever You Are - Used to be one of my favorite INXS albums
 * Liquidmetal - I kept reading about all the liquidmetal racquets and thought wiki needed an article
 * Paul Van Riper - created after reading an excellent interview that was critical of the Iraq War
 * Card marking - Poker interest
 * Clairvius Narcisse - something I created after wandering around wikipedia
 * Sloppy Joe's (bar) - cool bar in Key West and a haunt of Ernest Hemingway
 * Doily - my grandma always had doilies, so I started the article
 * Alen - Saw this at Online Coversion and thought about doing all unusual measurements listed but eventually lost interest

 * Fort Mitchell National Cemetery - An excellent starter project! Many of the National cemetaries are redlinked.  Most cemetaries have websites with detailed histories and notable information all of which is in the public domain.  Another failed project that I wanted to tackle
