[edit] Projects founded by myself[edit] Stub building and wikipedia developmentMain: My stub and wikipedia improvement philosophy [edit] Did you Know (DYK)See User:Dr. Blofeld/DYK and DYK A-Z country challenge [edit] AwardsI think I have to be the most "decorated" wikipedian on English wikipedia: [edit] Featured articlesI have never kept track of these like a lot of people do on here but I believe I've contributed to about ten featured articles in total. I rarely take an article to FAC as in my experience I found the expected standard to be almost impossibly high (there is no such thing as perfection) and given how many minor edits need to be made and how stressful it can be with the negative comments at what it otherwise excellent work I made the decision that I wouldn't bother taking an article to FAC again and that my time would be better spent on developing different articles to an acceptable level. The ones I've written primarily are as follows (sadly both have been pathetically stripped of virtually all images they had out of WP:Copyright paranoia to the point they look like a starved version of my cat): [edit] Good articlesI never used to keep track of these "officially" but kept a rough tally in my head as I went along. I've significantly contributed to around 70 good articles to date, almost half of which are James Bond related, including 26 films and several other related articles.
I have begun listing the articles I've contributed to in passing GA since March 2010:
[edit] As reviewerFrom July 2011 I have begun reviewing the occasional good article to help with the growing log of articles needing a review. Like other editors such as User:Tim riley I consider GA one of the most important steps in wikipedia development, articles which have formally been reviewed and some form of quality has been met. My feeling is that we should be aiming to get every article up to GA status, even if not FA standard. As a reader, I believe there is nothing more important than reading an article which at least indicates it has been reviewed and read over and fully sourced so the information can at least be verified if you doubt it. As a reader you want every article you read to have been given the same level of TLC and what we should be striving to achieve on all 3.7 million articles. I am, however, only willing to promote those articles which clearly meet GA criteria and which have an acceptable degree of coverage and sources. The higher quality GA nominations can be spotted a mile off from those which are plagued with issues.
