Hey, Im Emurph, a chemical engineering major at the University of Delaware. Ever since I discovered Wikipedia in 2005 I've fallen in love with it. At first I just loved its ease, availibility, breadth, etc and it quickly became one of my favorite sites. The concept of accumulating knowledge in an easily accecible and editible environment is pure genius.
Current[edit]
Recently I have become more and more interested with the inner workings of wikipedia (and all the rest of the wikis) and I decided to open an account in January 2006. Since then I cant use a computer without peeking my head in and checking for recent updates or areas I can contribute. Im slowly working myself into the wikipedia world and hope to start making some major contributions in the near future. For now I am using my free time to read as many articles I can, especially on wikipedia policies, to get a feel for how a good article should be written. I also enjoy searching for and fixing valdalized articles under the Recent changes page.
Ideas[edit]
- Work on South Jersey related articles
- Create highschool, middleschool, and elementary school articles
- Expand University of Delaware article using other universities as examples (Penn State, Ohio State, etc)
- Use knowledge as student to create/expand:
- Student Life
- Athletics
- Academics
- Rankings
- Use knowledge as student to create/expand:
- Local bands of South Jersey and Delaware
- more to come
