My name is Daniel. I was born in northeastern Pennsylvania. Since then I have lived in Haiti, Lao PDR, Spain, Ohio, Minnesota, and Texas.


Contributions

edit

These are articles I feel I improved substantially at some point in their history.

  = Articles I created, though a few (e.g. Roadway Express) had existed previously but had been deleted, blanked, or converted to a redirect. For these, I only consider them created if I did not restore any content from the previous article and instead started from scratch. This does not include creating redirects or simple moves.

Companies

edit

As part of WikiProject Companies, I've improved numerous articles on companies, particularly focused on layout (including infoboxes), verifiability, and fixing WP:NPOV and WP:COPYVIO violations. Additionally, I have a specific interest in logistics and transportation and have made significant improvements to a variety of articles in this and related industries. Much of this work has been fixing major issues and bringing articles up to at least Start or C class.

Freight transportation

Other logistics & transportation

Food & beverage

Energy industry

Retail

Other companies

Regional

edit

My interests in geography, transportation, and history have led to work improving articles about regions near where I've lived.

Other

edit

Over the years I've worked on various other subjects or specific articles.

Future work

edit

There are several groups of articles I'd like to work on that are currently confused. These are mostly groups of related companies where people have trouble telling them apart. Each is usually notable on its own, though some would be better merged, but often current versions of these articles lack clear focus.

DHL

TNT

Purolator

Consolidated Freightways

UPS

FedEx

Loomis

In addition to this user, I had an account (drziegler, created June 4th, 2006) which I used in 2006 and 2009–2011. I used DatraxMada 2006–2008, 2011–2013, and since 2021.

For the most part, I used one or the other account exclusively during different periods between 2006 and 2011. There were a few times where I used both accounts in the same month:

  • August 2006: 1 edit as DatraxMada and 10 as drziegler
  • September 2006: 2 edits as drziegler (redirecting user page to DatraxMada) and 108 as DatraxMada
  • May 2011: 1 edit as drziegler (my last edit with the account) and 8 as DatraxMada

Neither account has been the subject of administrative action. In addition to these two accounts, I have at times made edits while not logged in, always simply an oversight.
