Hello

edit

Hi! I'm a Korean American male, I grew up in South Korea and now live in the U.S. I speak English, Korean, Chinese (conversational), and Japanese (basic, enough for simple conversations). I used to edit under a previous account (contribs, pages created) that I retired per WP:RTV, but I decided to come back.

Interests

edit

I'm interested in almost every field of study, but edit mostly on Korea because I think I'm most useful to Wikipedia in that area.

  • Modern Korean history (19th and 20th centuries)
  • Korean diaspora
  • Religious studies
    • Abrahamic faiths
      • Early Islamic history, Islamic theology, sects and related religions, intersect relations
      • Modern Judaism, sects, Samaritans, Beta Israel, Druze, and relations between these groups
      • Early Christianity, Christian syncretism, and various Mormon sects
    • South Asian religions
      • Sikhism, modern Hindu-Sikh-Jain-Buddhist relations, practice of these religions outside of South Asia (e.g. in Guyana)
  • Math and science
    • Biographies of mathematicians, physicists, and computer scientists
    • History of neural computation
    • Early history of math, evolution of numeracy and numeracy of animals
  • Geopolitics
    • Modern Middle Eastern history
  • Travel
    • I've been to 20 countries, my favorites are India, Egypt, Mexico, Türkiye, Japan, and China.

My work

edit

I try to edit quickly and boldly, as coverage of Korea on Wikipedia needs significant improvement and the Korean-speaking community on enwiki is quite small. I try to prioritize topics that I think others are unlikely to work on and that are important or useful for non-Koreans, the Korean diaspora, and historians.

AutoWikiBrowser

edit

Here is a description of what my scripts do. Please post on my talk page if you have any concerns with these edits.

Photos

edit

I've uploaded many photos to Commons (old account, new account), almost all about Korea.
