Hello, Wiki world.
I'm a transplanted American on the other side of the globe.
How I got my "Wiki handle" ... around the same time I came on board with Wikipedia, I'd been looking at Iceland Air's website a lot to get some flight information, and I found it so cute what the airline kept flashing on the screen in the few seconds between my making a request for flight information and when it would arrive: "Augnablik: that means just a second in Icelandic, literally 'blink of an eye.'" That's my only connection to Iceland, if you can call it that!
I've done a lot of proofreading and editing over my life, though I identify more as an educator, instructional designer, and writer. But I'm one of those picky people who react to egregiously awful grammar, punctuation, and spelling — as well as lack of clarity and coherence — the same way as if I heard nails screeching down a chalkboard.
Tip of the day...
How to start a new article
The easiest way to create a new article is to click on a link to a page that doesn't exist. Typically, these links show up as red links. You also can use the Search box—on the top-right corner of your screen—to look for an article name. When you are told that the page does not exist, click the link provided. You can also use the Article Wizard. – – To add this auto-updating template to your user page, use {{totd3}}
