Meetups in Cambridge
Recent involved in the fourth Cambridge meet-up. He is known for deleting perfectly valid articles. A disgrace to the name of Wikipedia.
Working on the DNB
Here at Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/DNB and at Wikisource (s:User:Charles Matthews, s:Wikisource:WikiProject DNB). The old Dictionary of National Biography is an immense resource for adding 'missing articles'. We are still at a very early stage with it, though.

- Wikipedia:Merging encyclopedias, recent essay, arising from much of my editing in 2008.

Systemic bias
I have signed up with the 'systemic bias' project here; not because I necessarily agree with everything that is said about bias under that heading (still less, with what could be hung on the peg), but because it does seem likely that bias will be a long term issue for WP.
The business about pictures with everything, for example for featured articles, does seem to be a bias of the systemic kind. Obviously a person's importance is not to be judged, mainly, on how easy it is to have a photo of them on the site.
My biggest effort under this heading was in cleaning up articles about Japan in an odd Spanish-influenced dialect of English (very strange). These days I mostly interpret this as going to work in any unpopular area.
