About me

[edit]

Hello! I’m Emily Crabstone. I’m a full time gardener and a Wikipedia editor by passion.

I began editing Wikipedia out of a personal interest in learning, sharing reliable knowledge, and contributing to topics that are often underrepresented. Outside of Wikipedia, I work professionally in gardening and horticulture, which has shaped my appreciation for patience, care, and long-term growth — values that translate well to collaborative editing.

Editing interests

[edit]

My primary focus is on improving the visibility and coverage of women on Wikipedia, particularly through:

  • Creating new biographies where reliable sources exist
  • Expanding underdeveloped articles
  • Improving sourcing, structure, and clarity
  • Turning red links into well-sourced articles

I’m especially interested in biographies, culture, and community-focused topics.

Wikipedia philosophy

[edit]

I aim to edit in line with Wikipedia’s core principles:

  • Neutral point of view
  • Verifiability through reliable, independent sources
  • Respectful collaboration

I see Wikipedia as a long term public knowledge project rather than a place for promotion.

Collaboration

[edit]

I’m still learning and genuinely appreciate constructive feedback.

If you notice issues with my edits or have suggestions for improvement, please feel free to leave a note on my talk page, I’m always happy to learn from more experienced editors.

I’m also glad to collaborate with editors working on women-focused content or related WikiProjects.

Thank you

[edit]

Thank you to the editors who take the time to review new contributions and help newer editors find their footing.
