I just wiped out almost everything I put here in 2008-9, when I was last active on Wikipedia. It was all pretty pretentious. The Subpages section and the categories are still here, and there will be some changes there soon.

I tend to wander around and touch up pages as I'm reading the good and not-so-good stuff in WP. The main categories I have focused on in the past are Virginia politics; Virginia history and biography; Military history, especially that of the United States, and baseball.

Subpages edit

  • User:Rklear/Vgastub template for creating new stub articles for members of the Virginia General Assembly
  • User:Rklear/VGA/2002 (under construction) will contain a comprehensive list of all General Assembly members from the start of the 2002 session, when the last full redistricting took effect, through 2011, when the next one kicked in. I hope to build backward from here, decade by decade to a more comprehensive list of members. The House web site provides a fairly full list back to the 1940 session. The Senate has bios but no comprehensive search.
  • User:Rklear/dpvachairs list of chairs of the Democratic Party of Virginia — not worthy of a mainspace article, but a useful pointer
