Again, thanks for visiting my page. If any of my creations or edits have caused you any grief; I can assure you that this is never my intent.

Prior contributions

I have also contributed from various other IP addresses, but those other IP's are shared by multiple users who contribute to Wikipedia and I have no way to sort out my own contributions, so I'm not listing those IP's here.

What I do

edit

I have created one article at this point (my primary interest is CFIDs from which I have almost completely recovered after a devastating 18-year illness), but I mostly work on improving existing articles.

One of the things I do is clean-up and wikify semi-random articles from category:Articles that need to be wikified and category:Wikipedia cleanup. I also use the random article link to look for articles to work on.

I have found some articles on topics of interest which I have added to my watch-list. I work on improving these select articles on a more long-term basis, as well as keep an eye out for vandalism and linkspam where ever I find it. Although I believe in removing blatant spam where it exists, I also believe in correct attribution. I believe there is a balance.
