From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Work in newspapers but unlike most newspaper staff I don't edit text everyday for a living - an IT person instead.

I do hate to see bad spelling or bad grammar ruin a perfectly good bit of text though and everyone should be encouraged to contribute even if their English isn't the best as there's always people to fix things up (thank goodness, as people are always fixing up mine - especially my citations).

I'm also beginning to dislike not finding something on Wikipedia - it's becoming a gradually rarer experience which makes it all the more notable.

I speak New Zealand English with an increasing amount of British English.

Seem to be in the running for the world's smallest edits awards!
