My name is Guy Hamilton. I live in Chepstow, Wales - and, in the past, lived in the Wirral, Devon, and Bristol.
My main areas of interest are:
  • the history and topography of the Monmouthshire area - which sometimes spills over into editing other articles concerning other parts of Wales and England;
  • the history and development of blues, R&B and rock music, loosely defined, and associated genres (mostly before about 1980) - with a particular interest in more obscure (but still notable) performers, songwriters, record producers, etc. - and in recent months focusing on largely forgotten music hall and vaudeville performers, writers, etc.;
  • ensuring that matters of breaking and developing news of lasting notability, especially in the UK, are covered fairly and neutrally;
.... but I quite often delve into other areas as well, including those in which I have some professional experience.
I'm generally happy to help other editors develop articles in those or related areas - just ask - but have very little interest in being associated with any of the FA / GA / DYK or admin processes, or in competitive editing.
Listed below are the new pages I've started (in bold), and other articles where I've undertaken major edits.
