My specialty is wikifying and copyediting smaller articles to remove glaring errors. When I do add major facts, I tend to heavily add references to ensure their verifiability. I prefer to write articles instead of discussing rules, but feel free to chat with me within reason, especially if I mess something up.

These days, I often look over featured article candidates. These articles, if featured, serve as precedents for related articles under development and become the most visible pages on Wikipedia. I usually check for consistent date formatting—problems there often portend issues such as inconsistent cite style or incorrect grammar. I will oppose an article that continues to have those issues throughout, because prose must be clear before it can engage.

I registered a second account, AnAltName, in case I need security on public computers. Please post on this account's talk page if there are related problems; use the prefix "AnAltName: " in the heading of new topics for those.

Registered Wikipedia users can try my Monobook or Vector style sheets. (Place either one under User:Yourname/yourstylepreference.css)

Picture of the day

Nathan Francis Mossell (July 27, 1856 – October 27, 1946) was an American physician. Born in Hamilton, Ontario, Mossell was the fourth of six children and both his parents were descended from freed slaves. During the American Civil War, the family moved back to the United States, settling in Lockport, New York, where Mossell's father went into business. Mossell earned a degree from Lincoln University, a historically black college in Pennsylvania, followed by the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, where he graduated in 1882. He was active in the NAACP and also helped found the Douglass Hospital in West Philadelphia in 1895, which he led as chief of staff and medical director until he retired in 1933. His wife was the activist and teacher Gertrude Bustill Mossell. This portrait of Mossell was taken around 1882.Photograph credit: H. D. Carns & Co.; restored by Adam Cuerden
