Much better.

My name is Peter Johnson (creative user name then, huh?) and I am a relatively new Wikipedian, having joined in 2005 and performing scant minor IP-logged edits before then. I was born in the United States and have lived there all my life, but have traveled to around 16 countries and plan to see many more.

[edit] About me

I have a personal web site for my poetry, blag, and various information about me. You can also contact me from there.

I find Wikipedia a ridiculously useful site, on the order of Google--slightly less comprehensive, but far more valuable and informative content. I've used Wikipedia to research public health and personal health issues; my newest hobby/passion/love/research topic is photography, having just bought a Nikon D50 and a couple lenses for it. I just discovered user Lviatour who has some incredible photos on his user page, including the picture of the day for October 27, 2006 which for some reason showed up on December 27, 2006. WTF?

I am a Microsoft ASP.NET web programmer for a Fortune 500 company.

I'm also rather busy at the moment, so that's all for now.

Search box bookmarklet for your browser

Bookmarklets are javascript programs that are stored as bookmarks in your browser, and which activate when you click on them. Here's one that conducts a search in Wikipedia on any text you happen to have highlighted in whichever window you are in (or if no text is highlighted, presents you with a popup search box): ~axel/bookmarklet.html. See also the Wikr bookmarklet.

[edit] To do

Well someone finally wrote the Susan Cagle page. Any pictures from her site I can use freely? Check out the terms on Nalick's and other major label artists to see if the same applies to Cagle/Columbia Records. Turns out those little butterfly shell things I see in Mexico Beach, FL are Donax denticulatus or the like. Wikipedia has nothing on them, and needs to! Druther's finally got props too. Googling druthers restaurant led me here; add this link to the article? Free Will Astrology, linked from Rob Brezsny Snitch Newsweekly needs to be renamed (like "Snitch (newspaper)" maybe? "newsweekly" isn't in the name, so it shouldn't be in the article title) and cleaned up (it needs more work than I've got time to do right now, e.g. links at the bottom--is that dash notation used anywhere else, or just something I made up? Should those be cited more officially?; plus I need to find out if it's really closed EVERYWHERE or just Lou/Lex--if not, why is the site down?) Velocity (disambiguation) needs to add "Velocity (newspaper)" too, and this needs to be linked from Louisville, Kentucky#History and History of Louisville, Kentucky#Louisville's_renaissance too, the latter two also needing their sections on alt weeklies cleaned up, perhaps put somewhere more relevant than history, and (especially) centralized in one location, instead of having duplicate text that needs to be maintained! Sheesh! I need to look up Wikipedia recommendations and precedent regarding sub-articles like this; check out Hurricane Katrina for an example maybe?
