User:DuncanBCS

I am mainly contributing on aspects of politics and higher education. I have edited since October 2003. I've found it an invaluable experience: it's taught me that history isn't written by the winners, but by the survivors. After 20 years as an activist in campaigning organisations, I've found out that much of the common sense and myth history we have is incorrect, and much is untrue.

I've made over 5,000 edits to over 850 articles, but I'm especially proud of pages like Michel Raptis, Max Shachtman and Fourth International, which became a featured article. There I've been able to help others in clearing away distortions and untruths, and in that way to help people to better understand the already complex realities.

I am occupied full-time, and cut my watchlist by a third in 2007. I go through peaks and lows of work here;. Feel free to get in touch with me either on User talk:DuncanBCS or by wiki e-mail.

Some of the pages I have contributed in my first years on wikipedia are listed below.
