On September 3, 2004, I made my first contribution to Wikipedia as an anonymous user. I officially became a Wikipedian on September 14, 2004 and began regularly contributing in January 2005. At first, my focus was primarily African election-related. I then expanded to writing biographies of African politicians, creating location/administrative division maps for African countries, and making national leader chronology tables. On occasion, I did similar work for areas outside of Africa. While remaining an African article editor, I branched out even more in mid-2006 by creating base articles for most of the school districts in Texas.
In January 2007, I began categorizing U.S. county seats and completing incomplete articles containing U.S. demographic data. I returned to creating school district articles soon after, this time for Mississippi. I focused on a wide range of Mississippi-related topics during mid-2007. Towards the end of that year, my focus shifted to U.S. Metropolitan and Micropolitan areas, which continued throughout 2008.
A majority of my contributions made during the past year have either dealt with maintaining my earlier-created articles or organizing and properly categorizing U.S. city pages, especially those communities that are part of a Metropolitan or Micropolitan area. I have also enjoyed creating articles on newly incorporated places as well as unincorporated places with interesting histories.
The following two sections contain articles that I have either created or significantly contributed to that are, in my personal opinion, some of my best works on Wikipedia.

African Elections Database – A site I created that contains data on elections held in Sub-Saharan Africa. It hasn't been updated lately, but I plan to do this sometime in the near future.
