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

I've created over 8000 articles (mainly albums) listed here: here. I know that they are mainly start class but hey - 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:

These are at C status:

If you are interested in creating album articles for Wikipedia I would refer you to 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.
