What I do here

[edit]

My main area of content contribution lately has been working on the CAT:CN backlog. I've slowly been working my way through every unsourced statement in a BLP tagged in or prior to February of 2011, either filling in the source or removing the statement, as the case may be. Reminder: If you see a contentious statement about a living person, don't tag it; remove it! I usually try to find a citation first, but there's no requirement to, because at the end of the day it's better for a BLP to be missing a true statement than for it to contain a false one.

I also do a lot of work with redirects: creating new ones, patrolling and categorizing new ones made by other users, and participating at Redirects for discussion. I have a special fondness for finding complex cases where a bunch of similar redirects point to different targets, like the "right to choose" redirects.

I also do fluctuating amounts of copy-editing, counter-vandalism work, and counter-work. Ask me about my RedWarn template for quick custom notes to users one had to revert in good faith (still under development), or about why you shouldn't put things on your userpage about how you "despise vandalism" or comparing counter-vandalism work to the military or law enforcement.
