I discovered Wikipedia on 26 September 2001, when it was running at www.wikipedia.com on the UseModWiki software, and there were only about 12 500 articles. I tend to contribute in short bursts, mostly cleaning up pages on topics that interest me.

The pronunciation of my given name is /'kεəri:/ in IPA, /kE@ri:/ in SAMPA; that is, to rhyme with Mary.

Contributions

So far, I've made contributions beyond just copyediting to at least the following pages, most recent first:

• Trees of New Zealand: Rimu and others
• Fluoride (moved from Fluorine after some discussion)
• Tequila and Martini
• Islands of New Zealand: Arapawa Island, D'Urville Island, Great Barrier Island
• Food additive and list of food additives
• CNO cycle and proton-proton chain
• Insertion sort
• University of Canterbury
• New Zealand English
• Christchurch, New Zealand
• God Defend New Zealand, NZ's national anthem
• Fluorine

I made a list a while ago of pages that I thought I should work on:

• Treaty of Waitangi
• Mount Cook
• Articles about Bic Runga, The Feelers[?], Zed[?], Salmonella Dub, Stellar[?], Weta (band) (and about the Weta too, actually), Tadpole (band)[?], Fur Patrol[?], and smaller bands like Seven Tongues[?], She's Insane[?], etc.
• Most of the links on New Zealand English.
• Christchurch, New Zealand and other New Zealand cities; see city listing and WikiProject U.S. States.
• Canterbury, New Zealand
• Colleges and universities: University of Canterbury, Lincoln University, New Zealand[?], Victoria University of Wellington, etc.
