From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I am an administrator whose interests range from health issues to African American literature. I have taken it upon myself to update and edit many of the literary articles and articles about African American writers on Wikipedia. I also have a strong interest in issues regarding the Southern United States (as might have been deduced from my username). Anyone needing admin assistance should feel free to leave a message on my talk page. I am especially interested in people reporting problems with systemic bias and racism here at Wikipedia.
Featured articles:
- African American literature -- Wrote almost the entire article. My first featured article.
- Ku Klux Klan -- I began work on this article after it became a featured article. Since then I've mediated several editorial disputes on the article (including one of which kept the article from being delisted as a FA) and made a large number of edits.
- Porgy and Bess -- Can't take a lot of credit for this FA. I added a significant amount to the "Racial controversy" section, along with inline citations for the article.
Good Articles
- William Shakespeare I've done way too much work on this article over the years to list everything here.
- Mark Kellogg (reporter) (Also a Did you know selection) Wrote entire article.
- Uncle Tom's Cabin Greatly expanded this article, added references, and brought it up to Good article standards.

For what it's worth, when I write new articles, I try not to write stubs. I write complete articles.
