Now that I'm teaching full-time, I'm not around Wikipedia on a day-to-day basis anymore, but feel free to leave a note on my Talk page if you have some article ideas to which you think I could make a useful contribution. I'll do what I can during my next bout of wiki-itis. Lawikitejana 03:53, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Other Wikipedia tasks
I have been experimenting lately with the following tasks:
- Using the "random article" navigation to find articles to edit, particularly with respect to assessing biographical articles and adding wikilinks to content.
- Going through sets of book and biography articles to ensure the appropriate WikiProject template has been added to the talk page.
- Working on a select set of politically and/or religiously charged articles relating to U.S. popular culture (books, TV, major speakers) and controversial issues and trying to improve the NPOV orientation. I believe this is especially important to do with respect to strengthening articles on positions to which one is opposed, because championing a position in the outside non-NPOV world is much more satisfying when one knows other positions have been well portrayed and given the opportunity of serious consideration.
- Adding U.S. two-year colleges to Category:Two-year colleges in the United States and editing those articles as need arises — volunteer helpers welcomed with joy!
