Hi there! I'm Purplemountainman. I edit Wikipedia occasionally, and I started in March 2019. I created an account when one day, I was browsing the article Android version history, and I noticed something that I wanted to fix. But, the page was protected for the people who haven't signed into Wikipedia. At that time I didn't feel like setting up an account nor giving out my IP address. Then, after half a year later, I finally decided to make an account. I used to (and still do) edit articles related to tropical cyclones (mainly the Atlantic hurricane season articles), but now I edit articles when I'm browsing through Wikipedia and see fixes I can make. I make a few mistackes ;) along the way. If I make one, please don't hesitate to correct it and tell me in the edit summary in your edit, or on my talk page. My contributions are here, and you can view the few pages I've created here. Also, if you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on my talk page!

A few topics I'm interested in are: anything related to technology (like computers, phones, and video), mathematics, tropical cyclones, and geography.

General topics lists

There are two types of general topics lists: Outlines and Indexes. Outlines are arranged hierarchically, while the topics in indexes are presented alphabetically.

The vast majority of lists on Wikipedia present the items of a class of things – those are item lists. The rest are general topics lists which are different than item lists because they present the subtopics of a given subject – their scope is an entire subject.

For example, for sharks, the item list is List of sharks and it presents shark species. A general topics list on sharks is the Outline of sharks, and its scope is everything about sharks.

Dates


  • For full dates, write 10 June 1921 or June 10, 1921, consistently throughout an article (10 June or June 10 where the year is omitted). Generally, use the month first format for (1) US-related articles, and (2) articles not related to a native English-speaking country that already use the month first format.
  • Avoid changing a consistently used date format in an article just for reasons of personal preference.
