Hi all, my name is Dan. I am a relative newcomer to the wonderfull world of Wikipedia. Having seen wikipedia on previous occasions I had not realised how the whole thing worked, However once I started to use it more often and I realised what this place is all about I was hooked.
I am a 28 year old, married, father of 3. I live in the beautiful county of Yorkshire, England. I work as a Facilities Manager for a very large multinational company, but the best part of my job is that i get lots and lots of time to read. As I am something of a bookworm this is great!

I find all the Harry Potter articles on wikipedia fascinating. There is so much information on here! its great. I recently finished my third re-reading of the series (my friends and wife tell me I need more of a life! lol). These articles are where I have been contributing most.

Shirley Graham Du Bois (November 11, 1896 – March 27, 1977) was an American-Ghanaian writer, playwright, composer, and activist for African-American causes. Born in Indianapolis to an Episcopal minister, she moved with her family throughout the United States as a child. After marrying her first husband, she moved to Paris to study music at the Sorbonne. After her divorce and return to the United States, Graham Du Bois took positions at Howard University and Morgan College before completing her BA and master's at Oberlin College in Ohio. Her first major work was the opera Tom-Tom, which premiered in Cleveland in 1932. She married W. E. B. Du Bois in 1951, and the couple later lived in Ghana, Tanzania and China. She won several prizes, including an Anisfield-Wolf Book Award for her 1949 biography of Benjamin Banneker.
