How I contribute to Wikipeida

I enjoy creating articles and adding references to subjects such as quilt history, paper engineers and moveable books, women's history, and African American and Black British biographies.

Wikipedia articles I started

Helpful pages I want to find again

Women Suffrage Pages of Interest

Wiki Scholars program June 2019

I completed a course taught by Wiki Education that trains scholars in how to edit Wikipedia. Learn more at wikiedu.org. All of my contributions are my own and I take responsibility for them.

Wikipedia Tip of the Day

Setting Wikipedia time to your time zone

Wikipedia's servers record activity based on Coordinated Universal Time (UTC for short). You can set your user preferences to display time for the time zone you are in.

If you do this, Wikipedia will show all times in Recent changes, page histories, and contribution histories based on your local time zone. However, when you sign a talk page with ~~~~, the timestamp is created in text, so it has to be displayed in UTC. Automated logs such as image file uploads are also shown in server time (UTC).

To show other users what time zone you are in, you could even add a time userbox to your own user page.
