Fawcett5 is a Wikipedian with a particular interest in the history of Canada and transportation (particularly trains and aeroplanes). Since 6 June, 2005 I have been a wikipedia administrator.
Please help support the Canadian Biography Initiative, an effort to create a wikipedia article for every individual listed in the Dictionary of Canadian Biography.

Note that in addition to these, I have stubbed out many hundreds of articles on Canadian Electoral districts.
Articles I helped with that have subsequently become Featured Articles
- I rewrote the Louis Riel article — appeared on the main page May 13, 2005.
- Canadian Pacific Railway JYolkowski did the heavy lifting here — featured on the main page April 23, 2005.
- Lord Dufferin – Worldtraveller did most of the writing.
- Someday soon, I hope that Red River Rebellion will be featured — I've been working hard on this, although much remains to be done.
Not by me, but dying for improvement
Here are some articles in my area of interest that I think are particularly worthy of expansion and/or improvement:
- Crowfoot
- John Palliser
- James Hector
- North-West Rebellion
- Pitikwahanapiwiyin (Chief Poundmaker)
- Big Bear
- Gabriel Dumont
