This page is divided up into two sections. WikiProjects are my plans for new Wikipedia contributions the near future. By contrast WikiWork gives an overview of what I've already done. Neither is an exhaustive list, but they cover the pages I am committed to in some sense and that I keep an eye on. It's too easy to make minor but relevant changes to articles for me to bother listing everything I've done!

I also contribute to the new Citizendium project. My Citizendium profile can be found here.

[edit] WikiProjects

WikiProjects This user is a participant of WikiProject Physics.

• Self-organized criticality — I wrote most of the current article (and probably will make another major revision in the future:-) and am perhaps the honorary editor of this page
• Talk:Power law/Revised article is a substantial rewrite of the power law article that I have been meaning to write for some time.
• The Wikipedia pages on Fighting Fantasy and the individual gamebooks need rewriting and standardising. A fun project to give me an alternative to science. :-)

[edit] Fighting Fantasy

A joyful let-my-hair-down blast from the past... Articles are in alphabetical order. I would have put them in gamebook order but since Wizard is reissuing stuff all over the place it kind of defeats the point... :-)
