From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am an air pollution scientist (day job) living in London, England. My personal mission is to improve Wikipedia's coverage of air pollution, atmospheric chemistry, and environmental issues that interest me, including people related to those topics. I mainly research and write new articles from scratch, including notable bios. Please feel welcome to ask me for help with air quality topics or suggest on my talk page air pollution pages that need helping.

I also write bios of notable scientists in other areas, including some of the Fellows of the Royal Society who lack them.

Articles I've created/written

[edit]

I have written 43 articles for the English Wikipedia. Roughly ordered by date of creation and topic, they are...

Air pollution, atmospheric science, and environment

[edit]

Other scientific topics/people

[edit]

These are mostly automatically notable (per WP:NACADEMIC#3) Fellows of the Royal Society. Some are notable for other reasons (GNG or other criteria listed in WP:NACADEMIC).

Articles I am vaguely thinking about creating
