Welcome to my userpage!

I joined Wikipedia in 2005, although only really started editing seriously in 2006. Most of the time I tend to observe articles I've written or watchlisted, and occassionally improve existing articles if I come across a glaring problem, and go through phases of writing new articles when I spot a gap which hasn't been filled. Sometimes I'm genuinely surprised at what articles haven't been written yet, for example I only started The Forsyte Saga (1967 series) in 2009.

Of the new articles I've written, I think Old St Paul's Cathedral, A Month in the Country (film), Sherlock Holmes Baffled, A Ghost Story for Christmas and the Blackadder individual series articles, particularly The Black Adder, Blackadder II and Blackadder Goes Forth are the ones I'm most pleased with, although even these are looking quite undetailed by modern standards. I guess that's progress... I'm also quite proud of getting The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (radio series) back up to scratch, which was a bigger undertaking than I expected.
