Michael Franks albums
My favourite singer/songwriter since before I could walk, if I'm to believe my parents! My goal is to have at least every studio album represented on Wikipedia, ideally the live albums and compilations too. Easily passes notability, just not enough wikilove clearly :)

Scope

 * WikiProject Jazz
 * WikiProject Music – probably already covered by the Jazz group
 * WikiProject Albums – probably; I should join this group too!
 * WikiProject Songs – for "Popsicle Toes" and track list templates, maybe...

I'm a huge fan of Wikipedia's navboxes! Given their incredible utility at finding related articles, I'm surprised it wasn't a part of the original Wikipedia code, like the gallery object. I use them more than I use categories.

When I first joined Wikipedia in 2006 though, I was nervous at how their information was presented. Since returning after an extended hiatus, it seems WP:HLIST was developed, which addresses accessibility concerns. As a bonus, it makes markup way easier to read!

There's still a lot of work to be done to bring all of Wikipedia's navboxes up to code, but I'm helping out where I can. I'm also refactoring navboxes to use subgroups if they present links that can be drilled down. In the scheme of things I'm still probably a n00b though, so feel free to correct anything.

My focus is mostly on navboxes that deal with public transport, and jazz musicians. So far I've done a few hundred.
