My current project: I'm running PseudoBot, to keep some of the easier-to-spot nonsense off the date pages. I'd like it to be as good as possible, so please leave me a message if it makes any mistakes or if you have any ideas to improve it (though you'll need to be patient for anything apart from mistake fixing).

Most of the rest of my Wikipedia contribution is anti-vandalism and minor clerical stuff.

I've just discovered User:Diberri's citation template maker at http://diberri.dyndns.org/wikipedia/templates/ - it looks lovely!

I'm adding {{coor}} coor tags to some of the villages that are lacking them. The data is coming from openstreetmap, and I'm checking each entry carefully by hand to confirm that the description of the place in the openstreetmap database matches that in the article. I'm adding in a HTML comment the openstreetmap description, because a) it's an extra sanity check in case I slip up, and b) it's extra local information about distances and orientation from nearby towns, which can be factored into the article.
