I currently reside in Denver, Colorado, in the United States. For many years, I resided in Chester County, Pennsylvania, where I lived when I first began contributions to the Wikipedia and some of its sister projects. I still spend a significant amount of time in Pennsylvania.
I earned a PhD in Chemistry at the University of California at Berkeley, which explains my particular interest in matters related to Chemistry and Materials on the Wikipedia.
I was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana, which explains why I have done so much Wikipedia editing on matters related to New Orleans. I am also an alumnus of Tulane University in New Orleans with a BS in Chemistry, having graduated from Jesuit High School of New Orleans in 1974.
Original Articles, listed below in the order in which I wrote them. Perhaps the quality improved as I became more experienced.
Significant Contributions to:
I have edited many other articles, too numerous to list here. I started contributing to the Wikipedia in February 2011. In addition, I have uploaded many photographs to the Wikimedia Commons and am beginning contributions to Wikivoyage. I usually have something under development in my sandboxes:
I have interest at present in upgrading the articles on Nina Floy Bracelin, Robert H. Socolow, and gas lighting, as well as several others not listed here.
I have a test platform. Here is a user subpage with a list of tools.
Beginning in March 2017, I volunteered to assist the Wikipedian-in-Residence at the Science History Institute. In this capacity, I have made significant contributions to, edited extensively, or originated, the articles listed below. The position of Wikipedian-in-Residence at the Science History Institute ceased to exist as a result of the economic downturn from the 2020 global pandemic.
In December 2019, I created my first article for Wikiquote, that on Julius Rosenwald. This link is to my WikiQuote user page which lists my original articles for Wikiquote. I also originate WikiData items, usually for subjects that might not meet the notability threshold of Wikipedia or subjects for which there might not yet be sufficient verifiable references. Perhaps I could more accurately describe myself as a "Wikimedian" than a "Wikipedian".
I participate regularly in the Wikipedia:Meetup/Philadelphia WikiSalons.
On January 1, 2022, the article I originated on the Christian Street Historic District achieved Did You Know status. The article about Curtis Imrie was a DYK on August 9, 2022.
As of February 2022, the article on Calutron Girls achieved Good Article status, an article for which I completed extensive upgrades.
In October 2022, I completed NPP Reviewer training and became an approved New Page Reviewer effective October 24, 2022.
Beginning on August 13, 2022, I began serving as a reviewer for articles nominated for Good Article status. As of August 22, 2022, I have completed three GA nomination reviews (passing two and failing one).
In October 2019, I received my first barnstar.
In August 2022, I awarded my first barnstar.
