David Finn - mid thirties, Irish but living in the Netherlands. I find history fascinating, and am most interested in the period 1850-1940 or so and the development of personal transportation during that time. Road, rail, sea or air is fine by me, but with a specific interest in how the sport of racing shaped development in these areas. I have a library of supporting materials from the period which I use to guide my research, and any contributions I make are backed by verifiable sources. The concept of building an accurate encyclopedia for the good of all is important to me and having explored other similar projects I have found Citizendium to be the most committed to producing a stable and verifiable alternative to the traditional paper encyclopedia.

The Netherlands can be quite attractive.

David Finn - mid thirties, Irish but living in the Netherlands. I find history fascinating, and am most interested in the period 1850-1940 or so and the development of personal transportation during that time. Road, rail, sea or air is fine by me, but with a specific interest in how the sport of racing shaped development in these areas. I have a library of supporting materials from the period which I use to guide my research, and any contributions I make are backed by verifiable sources.

Article development

All the articles I create or develop are based on reliable sources, and are mostly connected to each other in some way. All are in continual development, and any apparent lack of sourcing is purely temporary as I am working exclusively from reliable sources. Any questions just ask. This section is mostly for my own navigational assistance.
