If For Some Reason You Feel The Need To Edit This Page, Please Do So On The Pages Beta Page As That Is Where I Edit The Page As A Hole And Wouldn't Want To See Your Changes Accidently Overwritten, When I Update The Actual User Page. For My Reasoning On Why I Take This Method In Editing My Page, See The Other Section On This Page.
In regards to Wikipedia I usually perform small, correction type edits, but my main goal on Wikipedia is to standardise the methods of Archiving, and to crack down on the rampant vandalism of the articles. I also do more major edits every once in a while, usually on music type articles.
As you may be able to guess I am currently rebuilding my User Page, the main addition being a new layout for the Main Page, with a complete rebuild of the main page existing here.
Radar, Gun Laying, Mark I, or GL Mk. I for short, was an early World War II radar system developed by the British Army to provide information for anti-aircraft artillery. There were two upgrades, GL/EF (elevation finder) and GL Mk. II (pictured), both improving the ability to determine a target's bearing and elevation. GL refers to the radar's ability to direct the guns onto a target, known as gun laying. The first GL sets were developed in 1936 using separate transmitters and receivers mounted on gun carriages. Several were captured in 1940, leading the Germans to believe falsely that British radar was much less advanced than theirs. The GL/EF attachment provided bearing and elevation measurements accurate to about a degree: this caused the number of rounds needed to destroy an aircraft to fall to 4,100, a tenfold improvement over early-war results. The Mk. II, which was able to directly guide the guns, lowered the rounds-per-kill to 2,750. About 410 Mk. Is and 1,679 Mk. IIs were produced. (Full article...)

I mostly do small edits, but heres some of my larger ones (the list isn't fully compiled by any means, I'm just to busy hunting vandals right now:

Methodology
I edit this page and its accompanying talk page using several beta pages, the reason for this is that due to the complex nature of the code, I hate leaving the page in a disordered state if I have to stop coding before I’ve finished.
Just a quick note for those of you brave enough to make it to the bottom. This page is designed for a 1680x1050 flat panel monitor. Why? Well, because that's what I use and this page is my tool box, not yours. I have set up my own copy of the Main Page (with everything, not just the main five boxes) here because I hole-heartadly disagree with one fundimental element of the page, which will become obvious when you head over to the page. I set up a redirect on the Talk Page to go to the actual main page for my own conveniance, if you want to say something on my Main Page Talk Page, please do so on my Talk Page.
Today's featured picture
Ignace Tonené (1840 or 1841 – 15 March 1916), also known as Nias or by his Ojibwe name Maiagizis ('right/correct sun'), was a Teme-Augama Anishnabai chief, fur trader, and gold prospector in Upper Canada. He was a prominent employee of the Hudson's Bay Company. Tonené was the elected deputy chief before being the lead chief and later the life chief of his community. In his role as deputy, he negotiated with the Canadian federal government and the Ontario provincial government, advocating for his community to receive annual financial support from both. His attempts to secure land reserves for his community were thwarted by the Ontario premier Oliver Mowat. Tonené's prospecting triggered a 1906 gold rush and the creation of Kerr Addison Mines Ltd., although one of his claims was stolen from him by white Canadian prospectors. This photograph shows Tonené in 1909.
