* I did contribute an article on fringe medicine in 201 . However it followed all the guidelines for such articles.

I only occasinally added substantial conttentcontent to Wikipedia, and our other wikis take up a lot of my time now.
My main work was wikignoming, error fixing, and this is what I want to return to do. For instance the Chicxulub article says the impactor diameter ranges from 11 to 81 km. The usual range is 10 - 15 km. Their cite is to a preprint in arxiv.org which only gets moderation to categorize itarticles. andIt was not peer reviewed and never published.
