Selected Contributions

These are selected contributions—it is not a comprehensive list, but a highly subjective selection of articles I have worked on that I consider worthy mentioning or remembering for some reason or another. If you want to see all my edits, go to User contributions.


Kitchen failed to become a featured article in July 2004, mainly because people thought it was too much focused on western kitchens.

Growth of the Old Swiss Confederacy became a featured article on Nov 8, 2004! (Was featured on Dec 5, 2004. The article was called "Old Swiss Confederacy" until August 29 2006.)

Krill became a featured article on July 15, 2005!

Shrimp farm became a featured article on August 29, 2005. Although it wasn't perfect yet, it apparently was good enough. (Was featured on Oct 12, 2005.)

Paul Kane became a featured article on January 10, 2006 and was featured on March 1, 2006.

Swiss peasant war of 1653 became a good article on February 25, 2007.

Swabian War became a good article on June 6, 2007.

I also had a hand in bringing the articles on Erich von Manstein (Nov 25, 2004) and on the Antarctic krill (June 26, 2005) to feature-worthy quality, and I put up the von Manstein article for removal as a featured article on January 8, 2006.

Occasionally (usually when I can't concentrate enough to write an article), I do miscellaneous cleanup, I check images for copyvios, go through Special:Newpages, do a bit of RC patrolling, do the usual vandal fighting, maintain WP:PD, and so on.

Through the discussions about Soviet copyright, I also got more involved at the Commons.
