'Ello! Hi, I'm DankJae, formerly Dank · Jay, which can be shortened to Jae,[iii] a Wikipedian based in Clwyd, Wales. My contributions mainly relate to Wales, North Wales in particular. Although may wander off every now and then. :)
If you wish to raise a discussion, please consider the following:
- For Wikipedia user-specific queries, please visit my talk page (here). Be free to leave a comment!
- Unless it is specific to my conduct or asking for advice, please raise content discussions at their relevant talk pages.
- For Commons queries, in particular maps, please visit my Commons talk page (here).
- If you're referencing me or expecting me in any discussion, please {{Ping}} me, as I may not be watching every page. Although I have no obligations to respond.
- I no longer have any links to Welsh Wikipedia, due to the attacks I've received from there. I do not oppose Welsh or Wicipedia overall. This Wikipedia is not perfect either.
- If you wish to send emails, mail me . I may not respond to all emails.
Notes
- If I use "ofc" I mean "of course", I dislike using expletive language.
- I have a tendency to write very long sentences, usually by inserting new information in the middle of existing sentences, so apologies and please split them, before readers become breathless!
- Do not comment to me on every single edit to my userpage. Especially a single-purpose account made to target me. Not sure why this userpage is noticed, I'll take that into account and refrain from putting everything here if it is used against me.
Editor details
As local to Wales, my contributions are usually centred on:
- Wales
- Areas bordering Wales – such as the Welsh Marches and Merseyside
- Specific or varying UK-wide or in the UK topics
- General political, transport, geographical, political geographical and some cultural articles
Contributions elsewhere:
- I also contribute to OpenStreetMap, see my contributions (here).
- I make some simple graphics and maps of Wales and other areas (derivative and custom) on commons (gallery here), open to suggestions. Please submit any requests on my Commons talk page (here).
Other details:
- I am not perfect, I may make mistakes, so please do raise them with me
- I am not aware of every policy/style on Wikipedia, or may forget, so kindly raise such issues with me if it is recurring.
- If mistakes are made, I aim to learn.
- I have an alternative account named DankJae II for mainly digitally insecure circumstances.
Happy editing

For current sandbox tasks:

Drafts:
- Draft:North Wales Society of the Blind – Abandoned draft to delete per WP:G13, I assume it will not pass WP:ORG and wouldn't be reviewed. Had second thoughts on its notabilty, and mainly created to accompany the cy article rather than its notability. I accept, I was wrong!
