How I contribute to Wikipedia

[edit]

I only intend to be a casual Wikipedia editor, but I will help in three main ways:

  1. Some cleanup: I will fix typos on sight, and time permitting I will fix grammar, add relevant tags where a page needs improvements and work on formatting and layout problems.
  2. Photography: I am happy to be 'commissioned' (for free) to take any needed photographs in my local area. I will also attempt to keep an eye on Wikipedia's requested pictures and help out where I can.
  3. Graphic design: I am a competent amateur graphic designer, willing to be 'commissioned' for diagrams or illustrations. I have vector skills (Inkscape, Illustrator), image editing skills (Photoshop pro) and 3D skills (LightWave).

Contact me

[edit]

The best way to contact me is via Twitter. Or my talk page, of course.

Resources, reference and reading

[edit]

For my own benefit.

Watching for changes

Clicking the "Recent changes" link in the interaction menu on every page will give you a list of all edits in the last few minutes. If you just want to watch for changes to articles you have edited, use your Watchlist. You can add articles to your Watchlist by clicking "Watch this page" tab (starred) at the top of any article (the talk page will be auto-watched, too). You can click "Related changes" in the toolbox menu on any page to see changes made to the pages linked from the one you are viewing. And finally, you can click the "My contributions" link to view a log of your edits; if yours is no longer the edit marked with "top", then someone else has edited the page.

To add this auto-updating template to your user page, use {{totd}}

Disclaimers

[edit]

I was previously employed by BBC Cymru Wales. A small part of my role was adding relevant and high-quality links to Wikipedia. I am aware of Wikipedia's external links policy and conflict of interest guidance, and intend to uphold these standards and values. For transparency, I will keep a list of my BBC related edits.
