List of contributions made 30 January 2005 to 27 June 2006 (prior to creating an account, plus a few additional edits through 25 August 2006) are available here. My contributions since creating an account are listed here.

Areas of education, study, and interest where I usually focus my efforts on Wikipedia:
- Linguistics (English dialects)
- Botany
- Photography
- History (US and World)
- Geography
- Wildlife
- Theology
