Moore is among the most active editors by edit count on the English Wikipedia.[1][2] Across his half-million edits[1] under the username "Another Believer"[3] since 2007,[4][5] Moore has created thousands of pages, including articles on current events, natural disasters, and terrorist attacks. Some of these articles include the 2021 United States Capitol attack, the 2022 Buffalo shooting, and the 2022 Laguna Woods shooting.[1] On the English Wikipedia, Moore has created editor affinity groups ("WikiProjects") dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of current events such as the COVID-19 pandemic.[3][6] During COVID-19, he documented the pandemic's burgeoning reach across multiple U.S. states, business sectors, and communities.[7] He was a major contributor to articles about the protests following the murder of George Floyd.[1] Upon starting the entry on the 2021 United States Capitol attack, he and other editors stewarded the article's influx of new content as the event developed in real time.[5]
