From November 2009 to March 2010, I took part in the first edition of the Henry Allingham World War I contest, making the final six (of 20 contestants), but bombing out a bit in the final round (too much work, not enough time). Full details are in the page history here.
My aim is to continue to work on the articles I created, or worked on, or assessed (along with selected others), and bring them all to at least B-class standards, if possible. The following is a worklist to help me do that. Articles I created are in bold. Ones in italics are ones started or first substantially edited after the WWI contest finished. Ones in brackets were brought to B-class or better by others.
A-class edit

Stub-class edit
Unassessed edit
Articles created by me after the contest and not yet assessed.
- Memorial Gates (Constitution Hill)
- Memorial gates and arches (could expand WWI examples)
Assessed edit
Articles that I assessed during the contest. Some of these are already B-class or close. Some are start-class with potential. Some are very stubby and difficult to even get to B-class. Clearly not practical to try and get all these to B-class, but at least assess all for B-class criteria and add those criteria to the talk page (if not already done).
