I am a Wikipedia contributor based at King's College London, in the United Kingdom, contributing on aspects of socialism. I have been writing regularly since September 2005, and irregularly since October 2003. I've found it an invaluable experience: it's taught me that history isn't written by the winners, but by the survivors. After 20 years as an activist in socialist and trade union organisations, I've found out that much of the common sense and myth history on the left is incorrect, and much is untrue.

I've worked on over 500 articles, but I'm especially proud of pages like Michel Raptis, Max Shachtman and Fourth International, which became a featured article. There I've been able to help others in clearing away distortions and untruths, and in that way to help people to better understand the already complex realities.

I am occupied full-time, but I check in a few times each week. I go through peaks and lows of work here, but am am most active on Wikipedia between May and September; use Kate's tool to see more about the work I've done. Feel free to get in touch with me either on User talk:DuncanBCS or by wiki e-mail.

Some of the pages I have contributed to are listed below.
