About me I'm Alex Bradbury, from Worcester, England. I contribute to Wikipedia when I can, on various topics. My most recent project is transferring biographical articles from the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica. Any help cleaning them up, removing bias etc would be greatly appreciated. I'm tuned in to the wikipedia discussion list on the daily digest (you know, the one that isn't daily! :p) so I'm fairly up to date with the goings on of the Wikipedia. As well as helping out on wikipedia, I've also been working with Project Gutenberg, more specifically the Distributed Proofreaders (http://texts01.archive.org/dp/).

Current Status I'm working on a few things on and off at the moment. Copying biographies across from the 1911 EB is an ongoing project of mine, but I've been contributing some other stuff too.

To Do Well, I guess carry on sorting out those biographies, after B, it's on to C and then D etc. So there's plenty of space for more volunteers to help with this. I have yet to even finish BA, so there's lots of work to do, as well as extra cleaning up and fact checking of articles already added. For those interested, the Distributed Proofreaders (http://texts01.archive.org/dp/) are proofing the various volumes of EB now, which when completed should be a great source for material (very few/no OCR errors!)

My Sandbox probably has a list of entries I've recently added.
