Major Edits

• The South Dakota article is my most-edited article. I have over 250 edits on it, and soon I'll be happy enough with it to nominate it for GA status. I also have quite a few edits (100+) on the article about my hometown of Sioux Falls, South Dakota. There are some other articles out there that I would at least like to see reach GA status, so I hope to be working on these in the coming months.

Minor Edits

• Aside from the usual grammar and spacing edits, I have also been involved in RC patrol. If I have made a mistake somewhere while reverting vandalism, please let me know on my talk page.

Illustrations

• I am not a very skilled photographer, but I have taken several pictures for Wikipedian purposes. I have also uploaded several public domain maps and images. In addition to the photos, I have made a few maps for the James Cook article. If you would like to take a look at them, they can be found at User:AlexiusHoratius/Illustrations.
