There is much more to me

The Teahouse has just reached 1000 archives. 19:29, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

I was here when we hit six million articles. 13:32, 24 January 2020 (UTC)

About me

I mostly use the source editor over the visual editor, but use the latter for referencing and I use ProveIt for citations, as I'm not too good at using the templates. I joined Wikipedia to try and improve the article Gulval. I am currently creating an article on Dingle Farm Tearoom, although I am on-and-off with this.

Tip of the day...

Supercharge your browser

There are a number of ways to improve your web browser to make it a more effective Wikipedia tool:

• install browser extensions
• install user scripts into your JavaScript page for the current skin or to your common.js, which will make it available in all skins.
• add pre-saved bookmarks to your favorites
• add bookmarklets to your favorites or to your browser's toolbar

As you can see, tools are implemented in a number of ways. There are tools available for many different purposes, and with many different functions, and some that are multipurpose. Many of these are explained at Wikipedia:Tools/Browser tools, which includes a list of tools, for each major browser.
