Activity on Wikipedia edit
Trying to help out with a few projects
I've always used Wikipedia as a references but was more of a lurker than anything else. In recent years I followed a lot of the activity by some of the more prolific wikipedians and am genuinely impressed by much of the contribution in terms of care an attention to detail and nuance that has been made over the years.
I am however concerned with an increasing number of articles being edited by people who obviously have no domain expertise or flag pages for deletion simply because they have no knowledge of the subject. I find this antithetical to the very reason Wikipedia exists.

Domain Names edit
Currently holding a portfolio of between 200 and 250 domains.
While I am not a fan of the newGTLDs, as I think it was a massive mistake for ICANN to expand the number of available gTLDs as much as they did, I have bought a few.
