I had been using Wikipedia and following the news stories about it for quite a while. I looked up information that I could use in my science teaching. Since then, I have often taken information to use in class. Slowly I began editing various articles. I have begun to appreciate wikipeida as more than a tool for information, and more about how to generate knowledge. That was in February 2006.

Pages that I have started or made substantial contribution to are:

• Trends in religion in New Zealand
• History of Education in New Zealand
• Futuna Chapel
• Refugee migration into New Zealand
• Immigration to New Zealand
• Referendums in New Zealand
• New Zealand Ministry of Social Development
• Maori architecture
• World Organisation of Building Officials

Contributions to assemble

• limen
• discussion on talk Latin

How cool is that?

I respect the goals of the project, and so I support Wikipedia philosophies and policies, particularly WP:AGF, WP:CIVIL, WP:3RR and WP:VAND, to the hilt. For my favourite policy, see WP:BEANS.
