I'm a historic transport enthusiast from the south of England. I'm keen to improve the many Wikipedia articles on historic transport in the UK, especially having seen that many of them have so few references (often to broken links or sources that don't meet Wikipedia guidelines) and inline citations. I'm trying to use my book collection, and online sources such as the Commercial Motor archive, to improve the referencing in particular, and in some cases add additional information. I'll willingly admit that I still have a lot to learn, and will make mistakes - please be gentle in correcting them!

Tip of the day...

When and how to exclude Wikipedia from your Google search

Add -wiki to your Google searches to exclude Wikipedia from your search. This is useful for finding sources, or for when you are already familiar with what Wikipedia has to say about a subject, and you want to see what else there is out there.

Tip: add markers "my text" around your search phrase.
