My specialty is wikifying and copyediting smaller articles to remove glaring errors. When I do add major facts, I tend to heavily add references to ensure their verifiability. I prefer to write articles instead of discussing rules, but feel free to chat with me within reason, especially if I mess something up.

These days, I often look over featured article candidates. These articles, if featured, serve as precedents for related articles under development and become the most visible pages on Wikipedia. I usually check for consistent date formatting—problems there often portend issues such as inconsistent cite style or incorrect grammar. I will oppose an article that continues to have those issues throughout, because prose must be clear before it can engage.

I registered a second account, AnAltName, in case I need security on public computers. Please post on this account's talk page if there are related problems; use the prefix "AnAltName: " in the heading of new topics for those.

Registered Wikipedia users can try my Monobook or Vector style sheets. (Place either one under User:Yourname/yourstylepreference.css)

Nazca lines
The Nazca lines are a group of geoglyphs made in the soil of the Nazca Desert in southern Peru. They were created in two major phases – the Paracas phase (from 400  to 200 BC) and the Nazca phase (from 200 BC to 500 AD). The combined length of all the lines is more than 1,300 km (800 mi), and the group covers an area of about 50 km2 (19 sq mi). Most lines run straight across the landscape, but there are also figurative designs of animals and plants. Scholars differ in interpreting the purpose of the designs, but in general, they ascribe religious significance to them. The lines were designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994. This is an aerial view of the geoglyph known as the "monkey", one of the most well-known in the Nazca lines.Photograph credit: Diego Delso
