Hi all. I am a Canadian editor, mostly focused on improving the communication value of articles by correcting faulty grammar and syntax, trimming repetition, and organizing the content to add flow. We are telling stories here, not assembling random cut and paste chunks out of articles.

I quit Wikipedia for many years, as I am frustrated with the clumsy communication channels, proprietary editors, their snarky tone, and their edit warring. I do a lot of editing straight out of my IP, but log in where required, and on bigger projects.

Please don't revert my work wholesale. Your words are not copied from the Mouth of God, or carved in stone. The whole point of a Wiki is to have each editor build upon what came before. There is a method to my madness. I invite you to leave your personal ego at the door, incorporate my efforts, and make the article better by tweaking and adding to what I have done.

Thanks.

Ben
