How I contribute to Wikipedia [ edit ]
I only intend to be a casual Wikipedia editor, but I will help in three main ways:
Some cleanup : I will fix typos on sight, and time permitting I will fix grammar, add relevant tags where a page needs improvements and work on formatting and layout problems.
Photography : I am happy to be 'commissioned' (for free) to take any needed photographs in my local area. I will also attempt to keep an eye on Wikipedia's requested pictures and help out where I can.
Graphic design : I am a competent amateur graphic designer , willing to be 'commissioned' for diagrams or illustrations. I have vector skills (Inkscape, Illustrator), image editing skills (Photoshop pro) and 3D skills (LightWave).
Contact me [ edit ]
The best way to contact me is via Twitter . Or my talk page , of course.
Resources, reference and reading [ edit ]
For my own benefit.

Go to the right desk
The Teahouse is primarily for newer editors' questions about topics such as creating pages, citing sources, and approval of articles.
The Help desk is for more experienced editors' questions about how to use Wikipedia.
Village pump (technical) is for more technical questions about Wikipedia.
The Reference desk is for questions about life, the universe, and everything (other than about Wikipedia). It's a virtual version of the reference desk at a library. Wikipedians are very knowledgeable, and if they don't know the answer, they can probably find it pretty quickly.

Disclaimers [ edit ]
I was previously employed by BBC Cymru Wales . A small part of my role was adding relevant and high-quality links to Wikipedia. I am aware of Wikipedia's external links policy and conflict of interest guidance , and intend to uphold these standards and values. For transparency, I will keep a list of my BBC related edits .
