About me
editI mostly use the source editor over the visual editor, but use the latter for referencing and I use ProveIt for citations, as I'm not too good at using the templates. I joined Wikipedia to try and improve the article Gulval. I am currently creating an article on Dingle Farm Tearoom, although I am on-and-off with this. I want to make a scattergraph of the guesses over at the Wikipedia:Eight-million pool.

Useful templates and links
editOne way that many users like to contribute to Wikipedia is by patrolling recent changes (RCP) for vandalism or other common problems.
While this task can be done with a variety of tools it is as simple as looking over the Recent changes link (in your navigation box on the left side of your browser window).
Subsets of Recent Changes Patrol include New Page Patrol and Newimages.
