  • User:Dendodge - I live there, so can help out every s often (my main interest is The Beatles, so I won't be terribly active here)
  • 95jb14 (talk) 20:50, 10 February 2009 (UTC) - I live in Lincolnshire, near Sleaford and am interested in local history.
  • Dsergeant - I started quite a few of the articles in the North of the county, was brought up in Waddingham. I still keep a watch on those articles but have to admit I have done very little recently.
  • DominicCyninge Local to Horncastle. I have attempted to start, and have expanded several Lincolnshire based articles. Would like a better article on Horncastle Horse Fair. Plan in future to expand Kingdom of Lindsey. I am, unfortunately, incomepetent.
  • GrahamSmith (talk · contribs) removed to Sleaford in 1996. As a natural pedant with a wide range of interests, you may find some of my edits controversial, but well-referenced nevertheless <grin>.
