Hi! I'm Max.

I'm a writer, editor, and designer in New York City.

My work on here is pretty all over the place, but I'm particularly interested in:

  • Noteworthy historical subjects that have slipped through Wikipedia's cracks
  • Best practices for Wikipedia's coverage of artistic and literary subcultures
  • The future of Wikipedia and its relationship to and reliance on journalism and academia

2024 Wikipedian in Residence for National Book Foundation

[edit]

For 2024, I'll be Wikipedian in Residence for the National Book Foundation. I'll be working to help fill gaps in Wikipedia’s coverage of American literature, share and upload materials from the NBF archives, and connect and collaborate with other GLAM institutions and WikiProjects such as WikiProject Books, WikiProject Literature, WikiProject Novels, WikiProject Children's literature, WikiProject Poetry, and WikiProject Biography. If you'd like to work or collaborate on any of this, please reach out!
