As a retired [[Electrical engineering|Electrical]]/[[Telecommunications engineering|Telecom Engineer]] in [[Wellington]], [[New Zealand]], I may contribute to some items on telecommunications and electric (rail) locomotives, but so far I have mainly contributed to:

 

 

 

Military: The [[Second Boer War]] (Siege of Kimberley) and the [[Victoria Cross]], particularly the pages on New Zealand VC-winners and on the New Zealand (Land or Maori) Wars. Also [[Bletchley Park]] - the fascinating British codebreaking establishment.

From amendments and alterations to categories by country or year I have noticed that the nineties decade is nearly as populated as the two decades of the 21st century, and categories by year should usually go back to 1990 where possible (this will also cover all of the new ex-Soviet Union countries from 1990+) . Re country categories, the United States and the United Kingdom generally have the most articles, followed by Australia and Canada.. This follows of course from their size and their being English-speaking or largely English-speaking. Hence a category like [[:Category:Child sexual abuse]] with (2015) a country subcategory for the United Kingdom is asking for similar United States categories (which I have created).
