General[edit]
I studied history at University so I'm quite keen on looking at original sources.
I lived in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire. That doesn't make me partial but explains my interest in those pages. I've been working on the history sections and pages in that area.
Other projects[edit]
I've contributed to:
- Wikivoyage mostly from holiday trips.
My interest in history has led to an interest in Latin. I've made some contributions to
- Wiktionary:Special:Contributions/JimKillock
- Wikiversity:Latin
- Wikisource:la:Diversoria
- Wikibooks:Ólim
- Wikibooks:Jánua Linguárum Reseráta
Declaration of interests[edit]
I should declare a few interests.
I am Exec Director of the Open Rights Group and have a professional interest in IP reform, privacy and citizens' rights issues.
I am related to John Wilson (industrial chemist) whose page I've created and edited.
