Tip of the day...
Accuracy, quality and peer review

We strive to make Wikipedia as accurate and as good as possible. If you see something you know is wrong, be bold and fix it. If you see something that seems wrong, leave a note on the article talk page and remove questionable assertions if no supporting evidence is provided. You can also use a verification template to add a citation needed tag after the text in question.

Peer review for accuracy and quality happens constantly through the Recent changes page and watchlists. A review can also be solicited on Wikipedia:Peer review, Wikipedia:Article assessment, and Wikipedia:Good article nominations. If you believe an article is really good, nominate it at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates. More sophisticated approval mechanisms are under constant discussion. Regardless, we do not guarantee accuracy and have a variety of other disclaimers. These are linked from every page, so please do not add more disclaimers to articles!

There is a semi-automated peer review available. The easiest way to install the script is to enable it as a Gadget: go to your user Preferences and check off the MoreMenu, adds Page and User dropdown menus to the toolbar... entry under Appearance and hit save. Each article page will then have a Page and User pull down menu near the top; go to the article; hover on Page; hover on Tools; click on Peer reviewer.

About

[edit]
This editor is a Grand High Togneme Vicarus and is entitled to display the Book of All Knowledge: 2nd Edition.

While I was a seasoned Apple Macintosh computer professional, my personal interest is as a Postal Historian specialising in Irish Postal history and aerophilately of Ireland for the last 40 years. My particular interest is in civil postal censorship of Irish mail by both the British and Irish authorities during The Emergency.

For my sins I acted as webmaster for several philatelic societies because I wanted to provide as much quality educational information to fellow philatelists and postal historians.

Some interesting philatelic web sites
