About Me edit
I am a student at Middlebury College, planning to declare a major in Computer Science.
Paid Work edit
I don't do any paid work on Wikipedia and am not paid to edit any articles. There is nothing in my job duties as assigned that requires me to edit Wikipedia. I don't have any grants to do editing work on Wikipedia. I am participating in a project that is trying (as one of its goals) to get students involved in editing Wikipedia articles (see below) and as part of that project I try to model practice for students by participating in the project, which is sometimes done on work hours. I don't have any connection to Room to Read or any of the newspapers in the project. I don't receive any money from the donor. The donor is not secret -- when we launch this project we'll name the donor.
Newspaper on Wikipedia Project edit
I am currently participating in the Newspapers on Wikipedia Project initiated by user:Michaelacaulfield to improve the coverage of historic local newspapers in Wikipedia. One of the best ways to help readers sort out whether a newspaper is real or fake is to check Wikipedia to see if it has an article (and what that article says). Having newspapers documented is also crucial to Wikipedia internally, since many historical claims are sourced to local papers, and editors require context on the nature of the publication the material appears in. This project, Newspapers on Wikipedia (NOW) [1] will help to improve the quality and reliability of local news sources, particularly historic newspapers.
