I live in Hampshire, UK

I work in pensions so I am trying to share some of that knowledge where suitable.

I like things to have structure and a common layout so tend to spend my time adding links or putting articles into their correct categories. Often work from the dead ends because these tend to be articles that haven't yet been fitted into the overall structure or just need the layout improved to look like the rest of wikipedia.

I have also been looking into the use of Geographic coordinates which look like something that is becoming genuinely useful and a different way to access information on wikipedia.

Finally I have added Lupin's anti-vandal tool to my toolbox. I've tried it and like what I see so I might be watching recent changes as well.

Edit Count

Template:User edit count usefulness

I use to count my edits but don't anymore. Some might say this is because I do not make that many edits and I have spells of "time off" from Misplaced Pages. However, three weeks preparing the medal tables for the Commonwealth games which resulted in few edits but a lot of information convinced me it is quality not quantity.
