Created articles

• Go Kart Records
• Institute in Basic Life Principles
• Antonio McDyess
• Flint River (Michigan); worked on it at User:DDerby/Flint River (Michigan).
• Longview Baptist Temple, from a 3-sentence copyvio.
• Mott - major disambiguation page (though it really wasn't much work).

To create or do (someday):

• Mott Community College, the main community college in Flint.

• Ethiopian canon; working on it at User:DDerby/Ethiopian canon

• Flint Beecher Tornado - one of the most significant events in the history of Flint. One of two major natural disasters, the first being a flood in the 1940s. Found already created at Flint-Worcester tornado outbreak sequence.

• Saginaw River - for information, see Flint River (Michigan)

• Shiawassee River, Tittabawassee River, Cass River - may be a long time before these are created; informal request to create once Saginaw River is done.

• Crim Festival of Races, annual 10 mile and other races in Flint.

• The Human Condition (book), political philosophy by Hannah Arendt; working on it at User:DDerby/The Human Condition (book).

• change links from King James Bible (redirect page), KJV (redirect page) to King James Version of the Bible. Not that there's a huge problem with redirects, but many of the links are incorrectly formed.

• Clothing - add a section, or possibly an article, on mytho/religious explanations of the origin of clothing.

Also

My alter ego, Usor:quaerenssapientiam, has created Latin translation stubs of Patrick Henry College and Purcellville, Virginia.
