Starting by working on pages about the area around my birthplace,
I prefer starting new pages rather than spending a lot of time on existing ones, although if I spot spelling or grammatical errors I will normally attack them. My particular obsession is putting text into the past tense. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a newspaper. I began by hoping that the pages I created would be rapidly improved by others but in the absence of such a response have now given up bothering, so I guess that makes me a WikiSloth. However, sometimes there is a nice surprise with proof that little acorns can grow on Wikipedia. I started the article on Mary Lowndes with 2,900 bytes. It is now over 14,000.
