User:Janice Vian

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am a recent account holder, since April of 2007. I have acquired the habit of doing minor edits on pages I have read, for grammar or clarity, sometimes for spelling, and occasionally for content. If more knowledgeable readers notice problems in relation to any of these edits, please correct them and send me a note.

Editing is somewhat natural for me to do, since I am a former English teacher, and I have had quite a bit of editorial experience.

I am also a clinical psychologist, with a general interest in scientific and philosophical topics, so I am more likely to edit such content.

I have a query on the Reference Desk page of Wikiquotes, concerning a poem I would like to find. The relevant quote is: "If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my body take."

My user name is "Janice Vian", which is my real name. Someone else has the user name "Jvian", which I tried to register last year. Confusion is possible, but the user page of Jvian is concerned mostly with travel to Italy.

I find I am enjoying Wikipedia more and more, as the depth and scope of the database increases, and I use it as my default search engine.

I live in Canada, in a rural area of Alberta, and enjoy the fact that this physically isolated location is no longer a barrier to intellectual communities.Janice Vian, Ph.D. (talk) 18:16, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
