Background edit

Worked in IT all my life. Very interested in IT History from the 1950s through 1980s.

Pages I am actively working on edit

IBM Document Processors

I took this article and turned it into a much bigger article about cheque processors in general. The 3890 section needs a total rewrite and there are not enough physical stats.

IBM 6640

IBM 6670

List of IBM products

One of my favourite pages... I have added a lot of products

IT Pages I have written edit

IBM 3800

I wrote most of this article using a different ID. Ideally we should change it to a 'non-impact printer family' page dedicated to any IBM printer that didn't use impact printing. The 3800 was the first but hardly the last.

IBM Copiers

I wrote this article from scratch and have really enjoyed the research

Honeywell PPS

This is an amazing printer that well deserves its own page

Xerox 1200

Another amazing piece of kit that deserves its own page.

Ronald Borelli

Inventor of the PPS, my first page that memorialised someone who has passed

IBM hammer printers

So many great IBM printers that don't necessarily deserve a single page, but definitely deserve a good reference.

IBM Microfilm Products

Another amazing piece of IBM history. Really enjoyed the research on this one.

IBM dictation machines

really enjoyed learning about this rather strange period in IBM History Truly tiny machines

IBM optical mark and character readers

Amazing stuff. Another place IBM ventured into and then lost interest in

Non IT Pages I have written edit

Samantha Fish albums

So far I have added three pages:

Belle of the West and Faster (album) and Wild Heart (Samantha Fish album)

Danielle Nicole albums

So far I have added two pages:

Cry No More (Danielle Nicole album) and Danielle Nicole (EP) I then learned more about what makes an album notable and removed the page for the EP.

Thoughts on Wikipedia edit

I truly love creating content and focus very heavily on that.

I truly appreciate people who work to ensure Wiki articles are written to a high standard and copyright is protected.

I do however struggle with the feeling that sometimes content creators are driven away by aggressive editors and aggressive and sometimes sarcastic edit comments. I totally get Wikipedia has lofty goals that it needs to constantly strive for, but the way this is done is not always conducive to progress.
