*My [[Special:Contributions/John_Stephenson|recent Citizendium edits]] - look here to see what I've been working on (or just see if I know what I'm [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki?offset=&limit=50&target=John_Stephenson&title=Special%3AContributions&namespace=1  talking about]). I am mostly responsible for the original information on many of the [[:Category:Linguistics Workgroup|Linguistics Workgroup]] pages, and have also been trying to get linguists and departments to [[Linguistics/External_Links|link to Linguistics]].

==Articles started by others==
Articles which I intend to make a significant contribution to include [[linguistics]], [[language]], [[monitor theory]], [[applied linguistics]], [[phonology]], [[phonetics]], [[vocal cords]], [[Elizabeth II]], [[House of Commons]], [[Japan]], [[Japanese language]]  and [[Singapore English]]. I rewrote the [[German language]] page, but don't intend to go back to it much. I also restarted the [[abortion]] article, and wrote most of the early versions of [[spoken language]]. I expanded [[dinosaurs]]. As for [[Japanese popular culture]], I started that using bits written by other people and myself elsewhere.
