Leonig Mig is an excellent pseudonym for someone to use online. It is such a stupid name nobody would have it for real, so it allows google.com to keep track of everything written. I starting using wikipedia at university to get general overviews on subjects when starting specific bits of research. After a time I found myself editing inaccuracies, but more frequently improving on little bits of style here and there. I have written a series of articles about the area in which I grew up.
Much of these articles remains, however user Pigsonthewing systematically has downgraded much of my writing to his own prosiac style. For example I wrote "Hewell Grange is the ancient country seat of the Earl of Plymouth", which he just rendered "Hewell Grange was a house belonging to the Earl of Plymouth".
I intend to publish more of my local history research over the next few months, however this had made me realise that Wikipedia is not the right platform for this is. I do intend to keep my work licenced under the Creative Commons or the like, by the problems with vandalism on the Wikipedia platform have become clear to me.
