It seems sensible to put info about me and about what I'm doing / hoping to do on wikipedia here. If you want to add praise / criticism / comment, could you do it on User talk:SGBailey please.

Info about me can be found on my personal website http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/SGBailey and, since I may well go through long periods when I don't do anything here - even visit - I can be contacted by email on <[email protected]>.

I suspect that my main contribution to wikipedia will be fixing others' spelling mistakes!

My interests include Go, Fairport Convention, Jethro Tull, Folk music, Mathematical games, Maps, UK places.

-- Steve Bailey.

Pages I've created:

Go proverb, engineering and science contrasted

Pages I've substantially altered:

Surrey, Nim, Electronic color code, List of motorways in the United Kingdom, Dots and Boxes, List of 'years in music'

Pages I want to visit often (aka Favorites - how I hate that spelling in MSIE for Britain!):

Useful stuff that I've learnt about wikpedia recapped:

<nowiki>...</nowiki> can be useful
~~~~ signs username and date/time
'' is italic
''' is bold
External link title should use ==
County town lists use ''' even though strictly incorrect.
You can include HTML comments in the page, they are hidden from searches and only work at the start of a newline which breaks lists etc. There is one between the horizontal rule and "Useful" above.
