If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?

Hello!

  • I am mostly retired, but feel free to chat on my talkpage. If you want help with anything, just ask me or ask the helpdesk.
  • I rarely touch articles related to my work; If I write something good or bad, blame me, not my employers.
  • If you want to see some barnstars and related bling, try here.


Some of the things I've worked on:

  • Updating, cleaning, & adding sources to various Africa, economics, industrial, history, & transport articles; especially ones which are lower on the quality ladder.
  • Occasionally, I spend a couple of days investigating some long-term subtle vandalism, copyvio, hoaxes, or pov-pushing.
  • Cleanup of pseudoscience, alt-med, and other fringe articles; working towards neutral coverage on subjects which often have few mainstream sources. Sometimes I try to do similar work for some of the more controversial bits of human geography in the Balkans, and of Ottoman history, and other areas with persistent neutrality problems - though it can be quite wearing.
  • Occasionally, I hang around at places like AfD, AN/I, and various other noticeboards.
  • Less often, I create new articles; about 280 so far. Some are a bit stubby, alas, as I can never find time to expand them - there are always other articles elsewhere with more pressing problems. Maersk Triple E class is probably one of the nicest, but I'm more proud of the Ottoman taxation articles as this is an area where en.wikipedia is much weaker - if I hadn't created the Maersk, somebody else would have. Also, I usually leave GAs/FAs &c to other editors.
  • Dispute resolution &c: I've previously worked on 3O, RfC, and the mediation cabal, though I'm more interested in disputes brought up on other noticeboards and project pages.
