I started out mainly as a user rather than an editor, just adding bits and pieces if I saw something I knew more about than was in the article. More recently I've developed an interest in expanding Wikipedia's coverage of topics that interest me, but I still read far more than I write.

[edit] The Seafort Saga

I'm (very slowly) trying to improve Wikipedia's coverage of this series of science fiction novels- books, characters, other stuff, etc. It may not be as popular as Star Wars or Star Trek, but I like it so I'm going for it. Anyone who's read the series please have a look at the articles and add to them if possible.

[edit] THE USE OF THE TERM "the HMS" IS BAD GRAMMAR!!!

The term "the His/Her Majesty's Ship" is poor grammar - the correct term is "His/Her Majesty's Ship" without the word "the". I implore all Wikipedia editors to assist me in erradicating this abuse of the English language.
