About me

[edit]

Hi! I'm an adult male from Australia. I have a keen interest in Australian, military and British history and biography, which is why the majority of my contributions are in these fields.

I joined Wikipedia in December 2006 but didn't really became an active editor until June 2008, when I joined the Military history, Australian and Biography Wikiprojects. I achieved "my" first Good article and Milhist A-Class article in August that year, which was followed by "my" first Featured Article the following month—all on Harry Murray. I hit the 10,000 edits milestone in February 2009, which coincided with "my" first Featured List. In March 2009, I was elected as a Coordinator of Wikiproject Military history and re-elected for a second term in September that year. Having served for twelve months, I decided not to seek a third term due to my university commitments.
