Who the heck do I think I am?

[edit]

(Note: This user page is under construction, so it'll look particularly shabby for a while until I gain more experience in editing user pages.)

Daniel913, obviously. But anyway, I've always looked through Wikipedia whenever I was bored. I noticed that a lot of the articles I looked at had citations missing and things like that, but I didn't really pay attention to them. However, on April 3, 2010, when I went onto an article for the manga Psychic Academy, I noticed the page had been vandalized. For some reason, I felt that I should delete the vandalism, so I made an account and edited the article. Since then, I've been editing articles in minor ways like grammar, deleting vandalism, and other pursuits. I've been slowly coercing myself into making larger edits involving more effort, such as translating.

What do I do?

[edit]

Well, I primarily disambiguate internal links, add citations, and delete unverified claims/vandalism if I can find it. Also, I used to add the Acclaimedmusic.net charts for "Best albums of (insert year here)" and "Best songs of (insert year here)", but if I'm not mistaken, they've all been added for the 90s (the decade in which I specialize in, music edits wise), and I may add the charts for the rest of the 80s.

Articles of choice

[edit]

I usually edit music-related articles such as "(insert year) in music" and articles for random singles or albums that I happen to stumble upon. These articles are usually riddled with things to edit, so I never really run out of articles as I just have to find them. Another series of articles that have lots of room for improvement are articles for individual days. I go on these regularly, anyway, so it isn't taking too much out of my time.

To Do

[edit]

If you can't tell by now, I'm not that heavily involved in Wikipedia. For the moment, I'll be patrolling the recent changes and making my regular edits, but probably not much more than that.


Red-lored whistler
The red-lored whistler (Pachycephala rufogularis) is one of nine species of whistler occurring in Australia and a member of the family Pachycephalidae. It resides in the low mallee, spinifex, cypress pine and broombush woodland in the desert of central New South Wales, north-western Victoria and adjacent south-eastern South Australia, preferring low mallee woodlands or shrublands with open canopy, above a moderately dense but patchy scrub layer. The male bird has an orange or buff face and throat, a grey breastband extending around the neck and over the head, and rufous underparts with pale yellow or olive edging to primaries. The female is similar but with a paler throat and underparts. While it is often seen perched in trees and shrubs, the red-lored whistler feeds, for the most part, on the ground. Little is known about the movement of this species, although it is thought to be sedentary, with some movement possibly after breeding. It builds a substantial, cup-shaped nest made mostly of coarse bark and mallee leaves, neatly woven around the rim in low shrubs and lays two or three eggs. The species's limited range has seen it listed nationally as a vulnerable species. This red-lored whistler was photographed in the Nombinnie Nature Reserve in New South Wales.Photograph credit: John Harrison
