Hello,

Thank you for dropping by my user page. The main thrust of my edits on Wikipedia is a desire for organization. For this reason, most of my edits attempt to establish format standardization and better navigation. I accomplish this goal mainly by creating and reformatting redirects, disambiguation pages, navboxes, and hatnotes, but also by standardizing article titles so that the only differences between titles are substantive. I also occasionally create articles and upload images, however I have written far more disambiguation pages.

The guidelines I feel most strongly about are the notability guidelines (particularly the general notability guideline), the manual of style for disambiguation pages (particularly the one against partial title matches), the hatnote guidelines (particularly the one against disambiguating article names that are not ambiguous), and the article title guidelines (particularly those about precision and disambiguation). If you are interested in working on disambiguation pages, I would recommend reading "Disambiguation Dos and Don'ts".

Feel free to post a message on my talk page. I'd love to hear from you.

Neelix
