Bio

[edit]

I was born in Mobile, Alabama and lived my entire life (so far) in various suburban and rural areas east of Mobile in Baldwin County. I attended Loxley Elementary School, Loxley Junior High and Robertsdale High School, graduating in 1988 with an Advanced Diploma. I attended the University of South Alabama in Mobile, and graduated in 1992 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts with concentrations in graphic design and marketing. After a year working as a restaurant manager, I was hired by the Mobile Press-Register newspaper as a graphic designer. In 1995 I married Darla R. Lee of Semmes, Alabama. I spent twenty years with the Press-Register designing newspaper and direct mail advertising and acting as a liaison between technical support, software vendors and our in-house design staff. During that time, I also freelanced for a range of clients, including furniture stores, churches and an adult film distribution company. When Advance Publications reorganized their Alabama publishing arm as Alabama Media Group in 2012, I was asked to stay on as a marketing and web advertising designer. In 2013, I left to become a full time stay-at-home parent to my son, who was born in August of that year.

As of 3 March, 2020 I’ve been a Wikipedia editor for 15 years.

WikiNews & Tips

[edit]

You can help improve the articles listed below! This list updates frequently, so check back here for more tasks to try. (See Wikipedia:Maintenance or the Task Center for further information.)

Help counter systemic bias by creating new articles on important women.

Help improve popular pages, especially those of low quality.

Lead Section Size

The lead section of a Wikipedia article is the section before the first heading. The table of contents, if displayed, generally appears between the lead section and the first subheading.

Rule of thumb: If a topic deserves a heading or subheading, then it deserves short mention in the lead.

The lead section should contain up to four paragraphs, depending on the length of the article, and should provide a preview of the main points the article will make, summarizing the primary reasons the subject matter is interesting or notable. The lead should be capable of standing alone as a concise overview of the article, should be written in a clear and accessible style, should be carefully sourced like the rest of the text, and should encourage the reader to want to read more. The following table has some general guidelines for the length of the lead section:

< 15,000 characters medium size > 30,000 characters
one or two paragraphs   two or three paragraphs   three or four paragraphs
