Captmondo[edit]

A late-50's-ish guy living in London, Ontario, in Southern Ontario.

I work as a Senior Manager for Technical Documentation at a certain semiconductor firm, and have long been an expert in the Darwin Information Typing Architecture. I am also a published author of four computer-oriented titles (a couple of books on HTML and then another two on CSS). More recently I have contributed a chapter on the development and spread of DITA to an academic book on technical writing. I have also been a long-time lecturer on Information Architecture at the University of Toronto's School for Continuing Studies. I hold degrees in English and a MastersofPublic Administration, all from Queen's University, Kingston. Other than a brief stint with the Federal government in the early 90s, I have worked primarily in the technology sector. I also worked on one of the earliest Canadian commercial Web sites in the early 90s (Delrina).

I have been a contributor to articles relating to the subject of Ancient Egypt, which has long been a hobby of mine. I am also interested in Canadian numismatics, which is woefully under-represented here on Wikipedia, and something I plan to work on. I also have interests in Astronomy, History, specifically Canadian, Torontonian, Roman, British and British Commonwealth, as well as the history of language and science.

Of late I have decided to turn my attention to Canadian numismatics and pre-Confederation tokens, an area that only had a few stub articles on the subject before I started making additions.

I am also an avid photographer and like making additions to Wikimedia Commons. My current cameras of choice are a Olympus PEN E-PL5 and my trusty Olympus E-620 DSLRs. Whenever I go on business trips, if there is something I can take a few pics of in order to help illustrate an article for Wikipedia, I'll bring my camera along and deliberately take a few photos in order to help out. A gallery of the images I have shot and uploaded can be found here: [1]. Chances are that if I am not making contributions here in the English Wikipedia, I am working on something in Wikimedia Commons.

"Awards"[edit]

The Irrelevant Show and Ancient Egypt

Thank you for quality articles, first on Canadian radio comedy such as The Irrelevant Show, then Ancient Egypt, Ahmose I and the Rosetta Stone, for uploading images and for saying "This user enjoys writing.", - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

The Tireless Contributor Barnstar


For your amazing work on the article Ahmose I, which passed both GA and FA without a single oppose, I award you the Tireless Contributor barnstar. Wear it with pride, for you most certainly deserved it! — Editor at Large(speak) 14:02, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

The Original Barnstar

For your quality improvement work helping to bring Ancient EgypttoWP:FA, I hereby award you The Million Award. Congratulations on this rare accomplishment, and thanks for all you did for Wikipedia's readers! Fitzcarmalan (talk) 19:52, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

Canadian Numismatics bibliography[edit]

Journals[edit]

Web-only references[edit]

Ancient Egyptian bibliography[edit]

These are the source materials I have readily at hand from my personal library. Since I often reference this material in the articles, it makes some sense to have it all in one place. It also means I don't have to re-type my references to the full each and every time. ;-)

A selection of new articles created[edit]

As for the username: I created a fictional superhero by that name for a bunch of radio comedy spots I did for CFRC back in the late 1980s, and adopted it for personal use since that time. ;-)
