I am no pilot, and as for real life flying, actually being in an airborne aircraft, I have only five memories three during my teens and two remaining even from before that. | I am no pilot, and as for real life flying, as in actually being in an airborne aircraft, I have only five memories, three during my teens and two remaining even from before that. | ||

Originally I did not have that much plans, but I did a lot more than I anticipated, mostly categorisation. Also about half a year after my first edits on this wiki I wrote a [[User:Johan G/Essays/Essay:The FlightGear Wiki — Its structure, content and ease of use|user essay]] about some things on this wiki that I was frustrated with, mostly the lack of a starting point for new users, a lack of structure and coherence and a short-sightedness in not thinking a couple of years ahead. In a way it has served as my strategic plan and thankfully some of these things have been improved without my help. | Originally I did not have that much plans, but I did a lot more than I anticipated, mostly categorisation.

I have also begin improving the help for new users by extending the help pages and documenting a lot of templates, though some other users, mostly [[USer:Gijs|Gijs]] and [[User talk:Hooray|Hooray]], have done some work there as well. | ||
Finally I am slowly working on a [[Help:Style guide|style guide]] and uniting the look of the messagebox templates, which both should help bring a more coherent look to the wiki and hopefully make it easier to navigate and read. | |||
