Hello, fellow Wikipedians! I started editing on Wikipedia officially in December 2011. My interests are mainly in History, Geography, and Linguistics. I'm not particularly focused in one area at the moment, making edits where ever I can. I also wish to make easier links by expanding current pages, and once I become well-read enough to, create articles. However, I do feel that improving the articles that are on Wikipedia are more important than adding more articles (Quality over Quantity). My main edits so far have been history-related, and mainly about the Middle Ages, but, the articles I've worked on to get to GA status are of the natural sciences (Ornithology-related). If I'm not editing, I'm probably reading, whether it be books, or articles on Wikipedia and other sites. If I make any mistakes, do not hesitate to inform me.
I will try to join certain groups when I get the chance.
Topics of Interests
Middle Ages (Mainly c.800 to c.1500)
Holy Roman Empire (and pretty much anything I can find about it, whether it be people, events, culture, facts, etc.)
11th Century England, Spain and Italy (Sicily & Papal States)
14th-18th Century France
Byzantine relations with Western Europe 11th to 15th Centuries
Song Dynasty China (and Early Ming)
Heian, Kamakura, and Edo periods in Japan
Abbasid and Fatimid Caliphates
Early Modern Period (Huguenot & Catholic conflict in 16th and 17th Centuries, & know little of it, though, Worldwide contact within the 16th and 18th centuries)
Spanish Empire (Particulary Spanish Florida, New Spain in Present-Day U.S.)
Restoration England; and America during that era (Have yet to read about it yet, though)
Pulgasari is an epic monster film directed and produced by Shin Sang-ok(pictured) during his abduction in North Korea. Filmed in 1985 as a co-production between North Korea, Japan, and China, it is supposedly a remake of a lost 1962 South Korean film. The story is set during the Goryeo dynasty and centers on Ami (played by Chang Sŏnhŭi), a peasant who animates the fabled creature Pulgasari (played by Kenpachiro Satsuma) that her late father contrived to overthrow the monarchy. Intended to capitalize on the success of The Return of Godzilla (1984), Pulgasari was Shin's seventh and final film for Kim Jong Il, whose agents kidnapped Shin and Choi Eun-hee in 1978. An international ban on its distribution was imposed when Shin and Choi escaped their North Korean overseers to the United States in 1986. The film was ultimately released on VHS in Japan in 1995 and Japanese theaters in 1998, to critical and commercial success. Pulgasari is now considered a cult classic. (Full article...)
... that the galaxy NGC 1700(pictured) has a rotating hot gas disk glowing in X-rays after merging with another galaxy three billion years ago?
... that coach Ed Storm, after seeing his American football team losing late in a game, put on a uniform, entered the game, and made the game-winning score?
... that the 1731 novel Manon Lescaut did not become popular in France until after it was banned for immorality?
... that it took 12 and a half hours for Rashid Israr to reach his highest score in cricket?
... that the American play His Majesty Bunker Bean was a national hit that had "been seen by most of the country east of the Mississippi River" before it reached Broadway?
Note: I'm not necessarily the only or major editor (if significant at all) of these articles, however I do wish to see all of these articles reach a GA status at least.
Make some improvments towards the New Spain portal.
