User:Hullian111
Hey there! I'm Hullian111, I'm from... well, Hull, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, and I've been hard at work editing Wikipedia nearly day-to-day from mid-2021 onwards.
As of 2023, I'm currently in the midst of an endless one-person quality drive to improve Wikipedia articles for British buses - or buses operated in Britain - by way of scouring through online archives or a collection of old bus and coach industry magazines (i.e. Coach & Bus Week, Bus & Coach Buyer and Coachmart) from the early to mid-1990s that were acquired in late-2021. For the latter, I'm willing to provide photographs of the cited articles via e-mail, so if you're interested or wanting to verify a citation stands up, don't hesitate to get in touch.
Another quality drive I've engaged myself in is in the updating of photographs of things in and around Kingston upon Hull, as well as the articles they are featured in on occasion. I suppose that means there's somewhat of a local bias, but a local bias means a good element of interest in local articles?
Please disregard anything I did before mid-2017, as I've greatly matured since then and learned most of the appropriate Wikipedia regulations. Please see my warning badge of shame from when I didn't know how to act on a user's talk page on my own talk page.

Drafts
[edit ]These are big projects that may take months to complete to high Wikipedia mainspace standards.
- Fire services in the Republic of Ireland - Bit of an old draft - needs updating and fleshing out in parts, i.e. Civil Defence Ireland section needed.
- Kenya Bus Service - History and operations up to Stagecoach buyout need filling out.
- The Hull Story - bit too much of a stub for mainspace at the moment.
- Police vehicles in France - rough beginnings for what should be a comprehensive article about fleet orders and the like.
- Alexander Setanta - more sources needed to fill out specs to completion.
- East Lancs Pyoneer - submitted!
- Go-Ahead West Yorkshire - am sure this will be a big firm in the future, however information is too scant to warrant a mainspace article right now.
- List of vehicles of the Metropolitan Police - wish me luck with ever finishing this one.
- 2Travel - quite a notorious story of a bus operator driven out of Cardiff that needs to be told from the beginning.
- Dublin bus route 46A - a second go at one of Dublin's most well-known bus routes, now that RTÉ and other agencies have covered its withdrawal.
- Central Connect (bus company) - an East of England bus operator increasingly on the up.
- Wright Contour - the old Contour name is back with a newly-landed King Long coach; I have no idea what to call this or the older model as a result.
