Tufty

My name's Alex, and I'm a doctor – currently an FY2, with a CT1 core surgical training post secured. I've been writing on h2g2 since I took my A-levels in 2004 and I've written a fair few entries.

Experience on h2g2

I've been involved in various roles:

• Field Researcher - I've worked on projects about the London Underground, the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway, Mental Health, Surgical Emergencies, and the Raspberry Pi computer.


• Photographer - I've provided photographs to go with a few Approved Entries.


• Post Reporter - I've provided the odd thing here and there for h2g2's The Post.


• Scavenger - I've saved a few entries from the Flea Market and turned them into Approved Entry material.


• Sub-Editor - I've sub-edited 160 entries. I'm currently sub-editing 'h2g2 University' projects (groups of five entries or more).


• Scout - I used to be an h2g2 Scout, and picked 65 Entries from Peer Review overall.


• Solo Edited Entries - I've written 155 solo Approved Entries for the Guide.

If you've got something in particular that you'd like help with, feel free to leave me a message.
