Hello and Welcome. Wikipedia is terrific-- I like contributing. So far I've only put up one photo and one graphical image. I've done a lot of traveling, China, Japan, British Isles and Ireland (I know a bit redundant; if you're Irish you'll understand). I've also traveled extensively through the United States, parts of Canada and Mexico. I noticed a couple of years ago a photo I'd contributed to the Chin Gee Hee page. Tai Shan, China railroad magnate. Someone stole my photo credit.(How petty). I considered that maybe this person just went and shot the same angle, same time of day.... it would be a weird thought had this not already happened to my work. I've made a lot of science teaching materials that I'd contribute if it would fit standards. To celebrate the Los Angeles Dodgers winning the 2018 National League Pennant, I'll try submitting a map I made showing the relationship between Dodger Stadium and the community of Chavez Ravine. (Chavez Ravine was condemned, its residents evicted by the Housing Dept. The plan was a large low income housing project. The person in charge was caught up in a scandal, the housing was never built, a few years later the Dodgers were interested in moving to the west coast....) If there's a way, let me know the best ways I can contribute. Thanks! William Nettles
