Both of my names are often spelt wrong.

well Omni, yes he does have good handwriting. both my first and surname are forever being spelt wrong. my tutor for college was hilarious he'd change the spelling of my name everytime he wrote it how hard is it to spell Bevan? i get spellings like

Beaven
Beven
Bevin
Beavan
many more if i could be bothered to remember.

So true! I like to read information from wikipedia as a knowledge builder (as its usually in a term i understand) and then go on other websites to quote and refer to. However i have had a friend who quoted wikipedia in some coursework and got in big trouble haha :P

Alright I have just joined Wikipedia today and I find it already to be highly addicting. Already I have spent several hours at the site mainly looking on the Olympic articles talk and history pages. I find being able to see how the pages evolved as very cool and the talk page to be useful. The thing that bugged me enough to join was that their was no mention on the highlights page about Tajikistan's first ever medal which was earned yesterday but Togo's first medal from today was mentioned. It felt like some crazy discrimination which I helped to solve. Since I don't know HTML I will probably only be making minor updates but I will keep a watch.
