I'm a regular editor from Christchurch, New Zealand, trying to make a difference in this often-forgotten corner of the world. I mainly edit articles related to New Zealand, particularly its biodiversity. I also follow the Russo-Ukrainian war and maintain an interest in both countries. I'm also into photography and use a Sony α1 II (mainly for personal use). To clarify, I don't use the same username on any platforms other than Wikimedia Projects.

Wikipedia is unique. It's not controlled by a megacorporation and is one of the few large websites that doesn't have ads on it. It's not primarily generated by large language models, which are prone to inaccuracies. Wikipedia is already special because it is one of the world's most visited websites and is free, open, and editable. The work contributed by editors is genuinely impactful, and I'm grateful for that. I was inspired to write my thoughts on this after reading Alan Liefting's essay, The Reader, to which I'm indebted, having been directed to it by an essay from Beyond My Ken.

This page is mostly a collection of stuff and links I find useful. I have significantly worked thru the articles listed here. :-)
