About me: Hello, I'm Jen! I'm a wife and SAHM of four who writes encyclopedia articles on her phone while waiting to pick up the kids, etc. I'm mostly here with the goal of making new start-class to B-class quality articles on topics of low importance in my areas of interest (history, nature, books, women). New Wikipedia article topic clusters include biographies of New Deal artists, demolished buildings, projects explicitly inspired by the success of Wikipedia, water in the desert, stubs for California coastal sage and chaparral ecoregion biota getting observations on iNaturalist, and biographies of troubled heirs (e.g. Robert Johnson, St. Clair Morgan, Hope H. Slatter II, George W. Kirkman, Christian R. Holmes II) and 19th-century American scoundrels (such as assorted American slave traders, S. S. Boyd, Hilliard P. Dorsey, Fontaine H. Pettis). I also have a soft spot for men who did the work and did it well, even if no one ever gave them the title, cf John Bell Brownlow and A. W. Murray.
Sometimes I start find article topics that trigger the creation of a whole web of related articlesโfor instance, Joe Martin (orangutan), William Andrew Johnson, Chicano Liberation Front, and Red Hynes (coming soon?). I think I find those webs the most rewarding of all. That said, in the course of big research dives I end up occasionally doing articles totally out of my wheelhouse (e.g. 1846 Grenada, Mississippi tornado, Lightning in the Night), since I'm probably the only person on Wikipedia who has encountered multiple reliable sources for this topic I feel obliged to create it, but, man, it is uncomfortable!

Some unhinged American history conspiracy theories of mine, in case you want to lose all respect for me right off the bat:
- I strongly suspect Beverly Randolph Snow was actually Beverley Hemings, Thomas Jefferson's oldest son with Sally Hemings; he was named after Jefferson's cousin Beverley Randolph who died a year or two before he was born.
- Paul Jennings was probably James Madison's son. ("His Reminiscences offer a provocative glimpse into his world, yet leave the reader with the feeling that Paul Jennings knew and experienced much more than he chose to tell.")[1]
- The county stock association that formed in that southern or western U.S. county between 1865 and 1900 was actually a cover for the First Klan. They thought black people should stay livestock, see, and the stock association meetings were where they collaborated to ensure the animals didn't get uppity, all while hiding in plain sight.[2][3][4]
