Hello,

I'm a regular contributor to the English language Wikipedia --
http://en.wikipedia.org/ -- a project to create a free encyclopedia. I thought
I'd post a note to invite anybody who is interested to help with the entries on
Bletchley Park and BP-related topics:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bletchley_Park

A quick overview of Wikipedia, if you've not encountered it before: it's free,
both in the sense that the articles are available to anyone at no cost on the
web, but (perhaps more importantly) the information is made available with very
few limitations on how people use it; many of the restrictions of copyright
have been waived, so people are permitted to make copies and changes and so
forth. Another unusual feature is that Wikipedia allows anyone to edit any
page! Almost all articles are written collaboratively by volunteers, often
incrementally over a period of months. Contributing is straightforward --
there's a tutorial here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Tutorial

While some articles have reached a medium standard of quality, e.g:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enigma_machine

Others (in fact, most!) could benefit from lots of attention; to pick two
examples:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilly_Knox
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorenz_cipher

If anyone has any questions or would like some help, please feel free to
contact me.

Thanks!

Matt R (on Wikipedia, I'm "User:Matt Crypto")
