Capsule Bio

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. Politically, I add balance to Wikidelphia. Stan and I, firm allies for decades personally, oppose most of each other's positions politically.

That said, we get along more than well enough to build Wikidelphia.

Another 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, as said by Christians and near-death experiencers: 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 notes taken while a spectator at the Penn Linguistics Conference) I look it up and write an entry from what I find, and then post it in my glossary..

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