[edit] About me

I am Graham Pearce, a 24-year-old Wikipedian from Perth, Western Australia. I am interested in music - mostly classical music, number theory and the history and geography of Western Australia. I am totally blind, and have been so since birth, due to retinopathy of prematurity. I use the screen reader JAWS with a speech synthesiser to access the Internet. Most of my contributions to wikipedia are copyediting and article cleanup, but I also make more substantial edits.

[edit] My page history work

I enjoy checking through old history entries in Wikipedia and fixing cut-and-paste moves where needed. I have noted some observations about page history anomalies at User:Graham87/Page history observations. I also enjoy importing old edits from the Nostalgia Wikipedia; I've written some notes about the procedure I use at User:Graham87/Import.

[edit] Articles that I've started or expanded

I especially enjoy receiving constructive edits related to these articles. They are listed chronologically:

[edit] Articles that I find interesting

These are articles that pique my interest for some reason. Because this is a wiki, if you find an article that you think might interest me, just add it here.

You have been awarded the Sewer Cover Barnstar because you can read through anything. You don’t know the meaning of attention deficit disorder, laugh in the face of boredom, and are wasting your talents if you don’t become a patent examiner.

Thank you for helping me to English my Germanic wording, to make me create articles instead of interwiki-links, and for moving articles sensibly.
