Contributions to Wikipedia

I wrote most of communitarianism and worked on other political articles like political spectrum, same-sex marriage, and the Nolan chart. All this was years ago, and many things I said were foolish or reflective of viewpoints that have changed. Overall though I think my influence was positive. Now my work is mostly limited to correcting factual mistake when I come across them during my extensive use of Wikipedia for research.

Political spectra

I've proposed a new model of the political spectrum. Though I now believe political spectra to be highly flawed, I see my proposal as an improvement over existing models like the Nolan Chart.
