I am a retired engineer living in Sonoma County, California. I registered as a Wikipedia user in November 2007, but occasionally made small contributions before then. I tend to be online after 17:00 UTC and before 6:00 UTC. I am proud of my barnstars and other awards.

• List of articles on which I've done extensive work

Wikipedia has plenty of articles that need improvement, so creating new articles is not a high priority for me. I'm particularly interested in:

• ragtime and
• the geography of Sonoma County and surrounding areas.

To be created:

• Bill Kortum obit obit book review

I have a digital camera, which I use to take photographs for the English Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons. You can find examples on my gallery page.

• Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Sonoma County, California

I was involved in category maintenance during 2008 – 2009. Details may be found on a subpage.
