Interests

[edit]

I started on Wikipedia through looking at the FootySA wiki and realising that some of the information therein must already be "somewhere".

My aim is to expand Australian rules football coverage for areas other than AFL. Mostly this would mean South Australian National Football League(SANFL) as that is where my chief interest lies.

If anyone believes I have a cultural cringe then they are possibly correct, but it seems I am not alone: http://www.fullpointsfooty.net/the_afl_and_the_history_of_australian_rules_football.htm There is ample reason why the non-Victorian states have created their own Halls of Fame. :)


Current status

[edit]

(17 Oct 06):

My Sandbox(ie Articles in mid-development)

  • my User sandbox is essentially a list of SANFL-related to-do's and links to more detailed Notes for articles. If for some strange reason you wish to dive in and use the notes to help create an article, feel free. Just leave me a message if you do so. Cheers
  • Cleaned up the basic presentation of most Club articles so that even the neglected South and Norwood articles have at least a basic look and feel that doesn't embarrass their fine history.
  • All Glenelg Magarey Medalists started. Most could have pics as they were from over 50 years ago therefore out of copyright in AUS (note to self: must check if that's correct?). League-leading Goalkickers to do, plus club legends (Carey, Chigwidden, Harry Kernahan)
  • Started on the AFL Hall of Fame South Australians. Most are simply notes in my Sandbox (see above)
  • started sandbox versions on Len Fitzgerald and Ken Farmer because I couldn't believe no one had. The reference to Peter Hudson as the greatest full-forward of all time I found particularly VFL-centric - especially as it ignored his Tasmanian record.

Might be interesting

Red Link Recovery - maybe even recover some I seem to have created myself?
