User:RidG

This is my user page. There are many like it, but this one is mine.


My name is Dmitriy, and I go by RidG on Wikipedia. I joined Wikipedia under a different name in 2002, but did not become active under my current name until 2004-2005.


I contribute mainly to United States Supreme Court cases. I am a member of Wikipedia SCOTUS Cases project, which is always looking for new members. On any given day, I typically try to participate in cleaning up Wikipedia, primarily via copyediting and voting in the VfD category. I subscribe to the notion that Wikipedia is somewhat bloated as it currently stands (a necessary evil of its open nature), and thus tend to vote in a reductionist manner (really, a euphemism for "delete everything"). Below is a list of my stubs and articles that I have either created or participated heavily in. I am a big fan of peer review and peer editing, so feel free to mercilessly tear my articles apart. Cheers.
