Yorkshire born and bred. Was in exile for many years, but happily moved back to Yorkshire in December 2017. I have spent nigh-on 30 years in the Royal Air Force, and now I work in the NHS.
I edit mostly about Yorkshire, but also I edit a lot on rivers, roads, railways and (of course), the Royal Air Force.
A joy to review. Your article on Nicola Thorp, while short, sets an exemplary standard for start class articles in sourcing, writing style and layout. Please make more articles. I'll be following your contributions. Great work! Edaham (talk) 09:50, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
Thank you for you time and knowledge, I am just starting out as an editor on Wikipedia, and would be glad for any tips, tricks and input. I am struggling to get pictures uploaded at the moment (and keep the bots happy), including a few photos (not mine) but I know have no copyright limitations as they have been distributed for free use.
