Most of my editing time is spent being a Wikignome, but occasionally my edits are rather more apparent. While Wikipedia is a collaborative process, and a ground-rule is that no-one should claim 'ownership' of any articles, nevertheless it is of encouragement to me to see where I have made a significant contribution to the cause. This page is an unashamed (but incomplete) list of articles to which I am pleased to have made a major contribution in some way.

'Adopted' edit

Pages created by someone else, but subsequently 'adopted' by User:EdJogg. Typically this means: adding the bulk of the text to the article, or substantially re-writing what's already there, to the extent that the majority of the article (except images) is EdJogg's work. Usually also means that article will remain on watchlist and monitored for future changes. Note that some such pages may have been omitted.

The Railway Series
Atlantic Coast Express
ICC Records
Mortehoe
Traction engine -- (apart from images and manufacturers list)
Steamroller
Burpham, Surrey
Merrow, Surrey -- almost complete rewrite, expanding from stub
Crossness Pumping Station
Tarka Trail -- expanded from single-paragraph stub
Wharncliffe Viaduct -- expanded 13-fold from a single paragraph (in two days, aiming for my first DYK, which we got!)
Railroad plough -- major re-write and (planned) incorporation of German article text
Portable engine -- collaborative expansion on new article to get a Main Page DYK
Ferdinand Verbiest -- major expansion and research project, just to get a Main Page DYK!
Steam wagon

Significantly re-arranged or added to, and with an expectation of adding much more content in the future, such that it will then qualify for the above category!:

Major Contributions edit

Typically those pages to which EdJogg has contributed significant sections, or many small edits, but not enough change to consider the page as 'adopted'.
