User:Beginning

Hello there! I'm an Old Millennial woman (she/her/hers) living in the U.S. I have been editing Wikipedia since 2004, when I was introduced to the project by Timwi.

My username is meaningless; it goes back to a long-held policy of mine to use usernames that aren't easily Googled.

On a personal level, I'm a big fan of road trips, lurking around museums and libraries, non-fiction books, and watching way more sports than can be healthy.

Interests

I have varied interests and don't tend to focus on specific topics, with a few exceptions:

I also try to do a lot of disambiguating, style clean-up, and categorizing. I am a fan of the Oxford comma.

I love using Citation Hunt to fulfill needed citations -- especially ones that can be answered with JSTOR or Newspapers.com, two of my favorite databases.

This barnstar is to thank you for the article about Mount Saint Agnes College, where I taught for a few years in the 1960s. Later when I wondered what had become of that college, I searched in vain for any information. Today when I checked Wikipedia, I found all I needed to know! I gather you have done similar work for many other closed women's colleges. This is appreciated by far more people than you will ever know. MelanieN (talk) 16:53, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
