So, I'm probably just going to stick with technical articles. I plan on editing a few pages, but if anyone has any ideas for me, please let me know!

Suggestions instead of C#

You're going to have to try slightly more "exotic" subjects if you want to do more than just fact check and copy edit.

Check the Stub and C class articles at Wikipedia:WikiProject .NET#Assessment (or Wikipedia:WikiProject Microsoft/Assessment#Assessment table) to see if you could expand any of those. (However these WikiProjects are not as active as some, and there are likely to be other articles not included that should be.)

I should say I originally thought I could add to linked list and other simple data structures until I actually reviewed what was there :-) Instead I have pretty much been a WikiGnome, so you may want to ask a couple of other editors.

Sandbox feedback

Hey Jake! You've got some good foundation and sources in your sandbox to work from. I'd suggest splitting up the "Biography and achievements" section a bit - right now it's kinda just a big wall of text. You'll also want to rework your lead a bit to match the standard formatting. Compare yours to other biographical articles, particularly those listed on this page, for an idea of what is expected. Your content is generally good but needs some light copy-editing for grammar.
