Topic areas

I'm interested in researching dragon mythology. I hold a degree in Ecology and Conservation. Plants and fungi are a particular interest of mine. I have a second degree in Internet computing, but Wikipedia has more computer experts that you can wave a stick at, so I'm in no hurry to try and edit those articles.

I have many other hobbies, but most of them are not in desperate need of editing here. The main exception is popular music, which suffers alot from people copy/pasting things form websites and adding in false rumours.

Activities

I mostly wander around adding citations for non-referenced comments and removing silly stuff. I can help out with verifying topics I know about. I also repair links to disambiguation pages, because somebody has to.

This is a list of my edits: My Edits

Articles I visit regularly

...and possibly edit, if they need it.

Dragon - Dragons must hoard vandals, judging by some of the edits this page gets.
Sea Serpent - It's not like it updates often or gets vandalised much, but sea serpents are fun.
Wyvern - This article attracts strange stuff faster than I could deal with it. I just remove the really way-out stuff.

Articles I thought were fun

Atlanta Nights - Much like a B-movie, this novel is so bad it's funny.
