Background: journalism
Style background: AP style.
Strengths: reporting, copyediting, neutral voice, attribution
Weaknesses:
1. Wiki markup. Please let me know if there's an easier way to do it than the code I cobbled together.
2. Wikipedia style. Too many styles. I prefer AP over academic styles.
3. Spelling! Born and bred on spellcheck.
Likes: Writing in complete sentences on discussion pages, and not making people go to WP:THIS or WP:THAT to get the gist.
Dislikes: arbitrary capitalization
Interests: International affairs, international media and journalism, other random and interesting topics.
Articles I've created
editInternational media reaction to Barack Obama's 2008 election
Articles I've significantly altered
editBijbehara Massacre This article was listed at CAT:COPY as needing help. I had no prior knowledge of the incident. It still needs sourcing help and more copyediting. Thanks for the Barnstar Diannaa!
