Hi there! I'm Purplemountainman. I edit Wikipedia occasionally, and I started in March 2019. I created an account when one day, I was browsing the article Android version history, and I noticed something that I wanted to fix. But, the page was protected for the people who haven't signed into Wikipedia. At that time I didn't feel like setting up an account nor giving out my IP address. Then, after half a year later, I finally decided to make an account. I used to (and still do) edit articles related to tropical cyclones (mainly the Atlantic hurricane season articles), but now I edit articles when I'm browsing through Wikipedia and see fixes I can make. I make a few mistackes ;) along the way. If I make one, please don't hesitate to correct it and tell me in the edit summary in your edit, or on my talk page. My contributions are here, and you can view the few pages I've created here. Also, if you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on my talk page!

A few topics I'm interested in are: anything related to technology (like computers, phones, and video), mathematics, tropical cyclones, and geography.

Overlinking


Make wikilinks only where they are relevant and helpful in the context. Links can be distracting and may slow the reader down. Redundant links (like "the tallest people on Earth") clutter the page. High-value links will stand out more clearly in the absence of low-value links.
