About me
My first visit to the encyclopedia was in December 2003, though I made my first edit in November 2004. From 2006 to early 2008, I contributed on on a frequent level and helped expand and improve several high profile articles, eventually getting Bill Clinton, University College London, Jonathon Band and Winston Churchill to Good Article status at the time. I have less time to edit nowadays, but still do a few edits each month and since 2016, I mostly contribute to maritime, geography and history subjects, with a focus on Scotland related articles. In September 2022, I helped improve Charles Edward Stuart to GA status.
I hold three academic degrees in geography, law and marine operations. I am a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, an Associate Fellow of the Royal Institute of Navigation and a member for the Society for Nautical Research. In 2021 I changed my username from LordHarris to Coldupnorth.
