Jerome West
I own a Multimedia and Web Design company and have been living in Douglasdale, Johannesburg, South Africa for the last few years after moving up from the south coast of KwaZulu-Natal.
I discovered wikis when a client asked me for one for their website. The client gave me wikipedia.org as an example when I returned a blank look. The following week wikipedia won a Webby award so I had to go look for myself. Since May 2004 I have become addicted to wikipedia and my wife is now threating to put wikipedia up with the BIG no-nos in marriage (affairs, porn and wikipedia).
Wikipedoholic rating is 45 97

My contributions so far have been centered around my love for Africa. I have compiled this list (most of them stubs) below so that I can find articles that I am still working on quickly.
