Hello all!

I am interested in modern warfare, especially Russia 1942-43, World War I & II also, with many years of knowledge in such fields. I also try to encourage people to distinguish between using Wikipedia as a tool for research and a sole independant source on a project, as I observed friends at my time at university and I was often shocked at the lack of cross-referencing and care taken with research. But I do think wikipedia is a fantastic resource, if used appropriately, and I became an administrator to encourage this.

Tip of the day...

Ask intelligent questions

When asking a question at the Help desk or the Reference desk, please include all the facts needed to answer the question. For example, do not ask "who was president in 1900?" without mentioning the country you are interested in. This prevents the volunteers of those departments from having to ask follow-up questions before providing answers. Friendly reminder: the Help desk is for questions on how to use Wikipedia, while the Reference desk is for questions about anything else (real world questions).
