Me, at age 2½, in the Bay of Islands

To keep me busy I have launched a campaign to get more free-licensed images of beauty pageant winners on here... and if I do say so myself I'm quite proud of the result. I am continually amazed and thankful at the vast number of Flickr users who have allowed their images to be released and uploaded onto the Commons... all making Wikipedia a better place.

I have also found some great new photos from military sites.

Here are some of the favourites:

If anyone has any they would like to contribute, head to the commons!

This is also nice:

Updated DYK query On 4 February 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Lauren Nelson, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] Current Priorities... what I'm working on

This is a list of what I'm working on at the moment/will need to work on in the future:

  1. "Results Summaries" for Miss USA & Teen USA state pageants
  2. Creating biographical articles for titleholders (particularly to fill in chronological gaps so succession boxes can be used).
  3. Fixing names in Miss Universe pageant articles so they adhere to the MoS.
  4. Creating Beauty pageants in the United States (?)
