From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hi, I’ve edited Wikipedia articles from a young age and I’d like to say I’m proficient in history (I’d like not to disclose my age to the internet at this time) as my first edit was on the history of Morgantown, West Virginia. Growing up, I’ve had the knowledge of history to add to articles, but I’ve never quite known how to properly format or cite it. However, now my knowledge of history has expanded as well as my knowledge of how to use Wikipedia. With that being said, I’m proud to say I’ve recently created my first official, public Wiki article: “Monongalia County Militia.” My knowledge of history ranges from American Military history to the history of north central West Virginia (as I’m also a Golden Horseshoe winner). All in all, I know I’m not the smartest ever, my edits aren’t always cited correctly, and my articles aren’t always formatted the best; so if you’d be willing to lend a hand and share feedback, it’d be appreciated as I continue to teach myself this process.
More About Me
I will disclose that my name is Cooper: a proud descendant of the first Americans as well as immigrant coal miners. I’m also a proud native of Farmington, West Virginia, U.S.A. (I’m really proud of my heritage). I also find politics, government, and science pretty cool, but that’s a subject for another time.

I’ve won the Golden Horseshoe Award of West Virginia as well as the Woodmen Life American History Award. I may not have any qualifications, but I’d like to be a historian someday. Meanwhile I’m doing my best at the moment. I’m fascinated in aspects of history such as military history, American history, world history, and West Virginian history.
