I'm the DISEman. What's [[DISE]] stand for? - anything you want it to... but it could be Digital Input Sequence Enterer or Delete Inserts Seemingly Erroneous - I'm no relation to [[The Dice Man]] but it's a great book which I recommend you read and I'm definitely not [[Andrew Dice Clay]] who is a pretty poor excuse for a comedian.

Most of my wikipedia contributions involve [[music]], generally [[jazz]], [[experimental]] and [[avant-garde]], but I've also been known to add to articles which involve my areas of professional expertise. My first major WP contributions involved [[John Zorn]] and the [[John Zorn discography]] but I developed a passion for creating album articles for a range of labels and artists including:

[[Cannonball Adderley discography]]
<br>[[Bill Evans discography]]
<br>[[Bill Frisell discography]]
<br>[[Rory Gallagher discography]]
<br>[[Keith Jarrett discography]]
<br>[[Steve Lacy discography]]
<br>[[Hank Mobley discography]]
<br>[[Lee Morgan discography]]
<br>[[David Murray discography]]
<br>[[Marc Ribot discography]] 
<br>[[Sonny Rollins discography]]
<br>[[McCoy Tyner discography]]
<br>[[Black Saint/Soul Note]]
<br>[[Blue Note Records discography]]
<br>[[CTI Records]]
<br>[[ECM Records]]
<br>[[Impulse! Records discography]]

I've created over 8000 articles (mainly albums) listed here: [https://tools.wmflabs.org/xtools/pages/index.php?name=DISEman&namespace=0&redirects=noredirects here]. I know that they are mainly start class but hey - [[In the beginning|ya gotta start somewhere]] and there's plenty if other  out there willing to help improve them.

So far only two have reached GA status:
*[[Guitar (Sonny Sharrock album)]]
*[[Live in Tokyo (Charles Tolliver album)]]

These are at C status:
*[[A Matter of Black and White]]
*[[African Waltz]]
*[[Air Above Mountains]]
*[[Another Story (Stanley Turrentine album)]]
*[[Big 6 (album)]]
*[[Blue Soul (Blue Mitchell album)]]
*[[Blue's Moods]]
*[[Changes (Keith Jarrett album)]]
*[[Charles Lloyd in Europe]]
*[[Charles Lloyd in the Soviet Union]]
*[[Chinampas (album)]]
*[[Dog Years in the Fourth Ring]]
*[[Domination (Cannonball Adderley album)]]
*[[Easy Walker]]
*[[Everybodys Mouth's a Book]]
*[[Fleuve (album)]]
*[[G-Man (Sonny Rollins album)]]
*[[Into the Hot (Gil Evans album)]]
*[[It Could Only Happen with You]]
*[[La Fenice (album)]]
*[[Mixed (album)]]
*[[Moon Man (album)]]
*[[Out of the Blue (Blue Mitchell album)]]
*[[Out of the Blue (Sonny Red album)]]
*[[Round Midnight (soundtrack)]]
*[[Shades (Keith Jarrett album)]]
*[[Smithville (album)]]
*[[Smooth as the Wind]]
*[[Strange Liberation]]
*[[The Gerry Mulligan Songbook]]
*[[The Incredible Jimmy Smith at the Organ]]
*[[The Opener]]
*[[The Kenton Era]]
*[[Tonight (Clark Terry-Bob Brookmeyer Quintet album)]]
*[[Us Three]]
If you are interested in creating album articles for Wikipedia I would refer you to [[User:Moonriddengirl/albums|Moonriddengirl's Notes for Creating Album Articles]] for some excellent advice.

I'm still learning my way around ''Wikiworld'' and welcome any comments or [[constructive criticism]] regarding my contributions.
