    My contributions list shows everything I've done as a user on Wikipedia; prior to that, I made many similar contributions as a bare IP address (not the one I'm using currently.)

    I made a mistake today. I added a link to the homepage of a product discussed on a Wikipedia page before I realized that the page itself is invalid and probably was created and is being updated by a bot. Invalid? Yes, because its title (and much of the text) uses an incorrect name for the company and will therefore probably require resubmission as a page using the correct name. (The incorrect page should probably be used as nothing more than a redirect to a page using the company's real name.) Additionally, since the only user who has been submitting information for the page (other than my submission of the homepage link) is the aforementioned user, I'd rather have nothing to do with it. <Sigh>

    IP address is evidently now dynamic.

    I'm still here, although my visible Wikipedia activity has decreased during the past six years. Currently, I am unsure how frequently my IP address changes, although it seems to do so on an irregular and possibly infrequent basis. I should call my ISP to determine certain things about which I have wondered—I haven't conversed with them for a very long time.

    I keep seeing pages with typos and/or grammatical errors. I hope to repair errors of that nature in particular ( minor edits). Sometimes other errors exist on pages, e.g. outdated links which no longer function and can be easily replaced with a modern link to the current information at the same source, or in other metadata which I can easily fix. If so, I might do it. I might also edit pages in other ways, of course. I hope to do so with greater frequency than I have over the past decade, always adhering to Wikipedia's standards.

Gee, that was a wordy and mostly-meaningless update. It demonstrates that I'm still here and Improving the quality of Wikipedia, an edit at a time!
