User:SimonCastleGuy

I am a historian specialising in medieval British History and Castle history. I have been researching and writing about castles in Scotland since 2005 and have written histories of over 350 on my Castle Guy and Castle Guide websites, through publication and private commission. This is growing to include several hundred Welsh and about 2000 English - and will grow beyond this.

The main reason I create or edit wiki pages is to ensure that accurate information is uploaded instead of popular retellings of myths - even if these myths are promoted at the castles themselves. I also intend to enhance existing skeleton pages.

This will also apply to individuals in history - medieval history is full of myth and folklore about people. I will likely start editing those out as well.

At present I am learning how to put references in, but these will follow.
