Today is

Hi, I live in West Sussex, UK and I am primarily interested in getting and keeping the information in Wikipedia as accurate as possible. In 'real life' I am very interested in Education being a school governor, preserving the environment and wildlife and I have more than a passing interest in classic cars. I have created about 135 new articles of varying quality so far!

Having now been a regular on Wikipedia for some time now I must say that it seems to be getting much better from the standpoint of its acceptance of people who are not 'experts' in the medium. When I first started contributing I was very concerned that people were not allowed to make mistakes and were somewhat looked down on when they did. This attitude, I am pleased to say, seems much less common now, hey we all have to start somewhere!

Spelling!

enANYThis user is pro-choice for different types of English and is against the Americanization of Wikipedia.


On the whole if it's a British topic, I think that it's only right and proper that we use British English, but I would always respect U.S. topics by using U.S. English there. This is in-keeping with current guidelines. I hope that other contributors will also respect the guidelines and refrain from "fixing" the variant of English without having a valid reason for doing so.
