Historian and palaeographer. I run Different Hand Ltd, doing manuscript transcription, XML markup, research assistance and related services. My PhD thesis and published work are on horses and cavalry in the English Civil War. I got into First World War research through tracing my great-grandad, who was in 1/5th Battalion Lincolnshire Regiment. I was a moderator at Your Archives and used to blog at Investigations of a Dog.
To do list
- check for and replace missing redirects from automated page moves (Special:ReplaceText didn't always create them when it should): done infantry battalions but need to do for all other British units
- NZEF infantry: manually create any missing battalions and brigades
- make sure all naming conventions pages up to date
- pals battalions need cat, redirects and name checks (got early official name histories from WOIs but still need source for nicknames)
- separate citation templates for ACI and WOI: they have different numbering and dating conventions
- manually create pages for rest of national Red Cross societies (low priority as no narratives waiting for these)
- should AIF field artillery batteries be merged with parent brigades? List of relationships at Digger History.
- rearrange divisional troops in British Empire divisions?
- try to clear list of individual narratives as far as possible
