I've been creating or updating articles on weather, especially Minnesota, it's climate and its historical weather events. I also will update articles on Minnesota Golden Gophers sports topics from time to time. I enjoy adding structure to articles that have good information but are poorly laid out, and for some reason I enjoy taking on tedious tasks. I've been editing Wikipedia for about two years now and have almost 8600 edits as of March, 2009 ( [1]).
