I'm a big fan of open source projects, and community-driven projects like Wikipedia. I made a Wikipedia account because I thought the idea of a community-editable website was neat. I initially thought I would just be "contributing a few edits here and there", but then suddenly I found that I had made over 500 edits in one month, and was thoroughly addicted.

I have many interests, including maths, computers, travel, and politics. Most of my edits are one of the following:

• Creating or improving train-related articles
• Creating women's biographies
• Improving and expanding UK politics articles
• Improving computer science articles
• Answering edit requests
• Reverting vandalism
• Making small improvements like fixing typos, adding categories, adding maintenance templates, and assessing articles
