[edit] Terrorism

I created articles on the following terrorist incidents, but am now no longer contributing to this region of Wikipedia due to the attitude of many trolls who lurk there.

[edit] Disaster Management

• Lagos armoury explosion

[edit] Train Accidents

Odd for me, who is not particulaly interested in trains, but I found a niche here with some interesting articles to write, plenty of online resources and very little in the way of contention or unpleasantness amongst other users. Also, because so few people have written on this subject, my first drafts were usually my own work, which I generally prefer to editing someone elses.

[edit] Road Accidents

• Maltrata bus crash
• Bethlehem bus crash
• Abuja bus crash riots
• Ibadan tanker truck explosion

[edit] At Sea

As a keen naval historian, I have a large number of very interesting books about the perils of the sea and disasters which have occurred upon it as well as histories of individual notable ships. Some of those I created or enlarged are below.

[edit] Military operations

Early attempts at creating articles on military operations, some more successful than others but all good practice towards my later, more successful, articles,

Battle of Mello British expedition to Tibet War of the Golden Stool Battle of Blanchetaque[1] Battle of Caen (1346) Battle of Auberoche[1] Battle of St Pol de Leon[1]

English Channel naval campaign, 1338-1339 Battle of Cadsand[1] Battle of Saint-Omer Battle of Brest (1342) Battle of Champtoceaux Battle of Bramham Moor
