What I Do
[edit]I mainly do short descriptions but I am a big article creator and I am creating articles for every church in Leicestershire, now that I have finished doing every church in Rutland. See my Pages I've Created section. I'm also adding the name origin of places in Leicestershire. I sometimes fix typos and grammar mistakes if I see one. I also revert vandalism if I see it.
Pictures of the Day
[edit]This fresco in the ceiling of Michaelskirche, a historic church in Salzburg, depicts Michael the Archangel with other angels joining in adoration of God. It was painted by court painter Franz Nikolaus Streicher 1770. The rococo stuccos were made by Benedikt Zopf. Today is Michaelmas.
