Rain The One


About Me

I joined Wikipedia on 11 August 2006 and for two years made a series of random edits that now seem pointless. Since 2008 I have improved articles to attain GA status, submitted articles for DYK and spent way too much time participating in talk pages discussions. What I enjoy most is creating new content and expanding articles. My main interest is editing fictional character articles. I am a fan of soap operas but dislike fancruft and I actively try to discourage it. Hard work from those participating at WP:SOAPS has helped change the once negative perception of soap opera related articles. I am proud of the work myself and JuneGloom07 have done on Australian topics, particularly those related to the shows Neighbours and Home and Away. I also edit articles related to Holby City, Casualty, Music, Actors and Places. I am a mixed bag - one day I will create an article within twelve hours, the following day I will start multiple sandbox drafts I may never complete.

For your images of Bet Lynch, Hilda Ogden, and Deirdre and Ken Barlow. Utterly invaluable, not just to the Corrie Project but to soaps on Wikipedia as a whole. To have free images of some of the biggest names in UK soap is just fantastic :) Frickative 16:44, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
