I'm an Film-Maker based in Scotland, I've released two short films Vindicated Echo and Snipers and currently working on my first Feature Film. Although I don't tend to specialise on subjects, I've devoted a lot of time to improving Wikipedia's coverage of the Butlins Empire given it's important place in British Culture. To that end I've created or worked on the following articles:

I also created Stubs for notable Scottish Toffee maker Millar McCowan.

I Proposed the article Time travel urban legends (though it was created by another editor before I had a chance) and I have added substantial content to it I also translated the related article Rudolph Fentz‎ from German Wikipedia and established it here. After watching an episode of Beeny's Restoration Nightmare, I wondered if we had an article on the house in question. I was surprised to see that Rise Hall was only a stub and poorly sourced/recently created one at that. After identifying a number of key sources I expanded it considerably and was even able to find a few images to improve it.

Other articles I regularly work on are

A keen genealogist, I can count Elizabeth Blackadder as a distant cousin on my Mother's side, and James McGregor Jamieson as a much closer cousin on my fathers.

I am a Scottish Nationalist but always try to find a NPOV where possible. I believe that many attempts by Wikipedia Editors to pigeon-hole subjects such as Who is a Jew? or Is the UK parliament sovereign over Scotland? are often prejudiced by their views of how the system appears to work rather that the technical definition of how it does work. If sources conflict I feel that both sides should be represented based on the relevant sources and there should be no attempt to pigeon-hole by editors.

Note for Articles I'm currently working on
