I am half-sick of shadows, said the Lady of Shalott by John William Waterhouse, 1916.

Hello! I'm Shoebox -- on account of living in a really tiny apartment when I got my first Net connexion, basically. Friends call me Shoe. Fortyish female Canadian semipro writer (ie. real-world admin assistant), inclined to be iconoclastic but doesn't actually bite. Adores cats, chocolate, comedy and history, is fascinated by the fine arts and natural world, makes something of a hobby of classic children's literature, and is just generally a regular browser of the

Unusual Articles
list.

My Wikiediting philosophy is pretty simple and, I suspect, not unusual: I want to ensure subjects I care about get the best possible representation on the Net's premiere information source...

...well, OK, there's also the "solemn vow to seek out and destroy bad prose wherever it may lurk" thing. Picture a very impressive blood oath ceremony, except with red ink.

So I've mostly just been roaming

episode list. Before I knew it, I'd also created the articles for the starring cast's new series Yonderland and upcoming film Bill. And significantly contributed to articles for castmember Mathew Baynton and his own major TV project, The Wrong Mans
.

Clearly there was no going back, and the next step forward seemed obvious. In March 2014, I graduated as a certified Good Article reviewer under mentor Figureskatingfan. I hope thus to continue to contribute as an active, effective force for article improvement.
