In August 2015, I got a little job editing Wikidelphia. Wikidelphia was in need of someone to pay attention to the whole project in a sustained way and help expand it more than its busy progenitor Stan could do by himself.

One experience that qualifies me: I started and have been gradually expanding another reference source. It's called Study Love, and it's a place to learn about or meditate upon the most important force in the universe: spiritual love (agape, as opposed to eros or philia). The site is large, detailed, well-organized, easy to use, and fast-loading.

I'm also building a personal glossary of linguistics that I share publicly. When I see a term I don't know, which happens mostly when I go over my Penn Linguistics Conference notes, I look it up and make an entry from what I find.

Back in 2009, I started adding the Stratificational Grammar collection of terms to Glottopedia, getting advice from the father of that grammar himself, Sydney Lamb.

From 2007 to 2014, I held the "chief clerk" job doing website maintenance, flier creation, operations reports, and various other clerical tasks at Nonprofit Technology Resources, which was founded by Stan.
