User:Ajobin

I was an occassional editor & donor here, but due to some hostile experiences here, including being threatened via email, & inconsistent enforcement of policies, I am now inactive.

Some things I work on here:

• topics that I have come to Wikipedia for some information about
• interests: jazz & improvisational arts, historical drama, art & culture, international relations (especially Asia)
• systemic biases in Wikipedia
• WP:DEADEND pages

Why I volunteer here: In an interconnected world, our social stability depends on our collective ability to integrate varied perspectives and beliefs. I think what distinguishes us as people is moral reasoning (analogy, empathy, etc.).

Picture of the day

The red-lored whistler (Pachycephala rufogularis) is one of nine species of whistler occurring in Australia and a member of the family Pachycephalidae. It resides in the low mallee, spinifex, cypress pine and broombush woodland in the desert of central New South Wales, north-western Victoria and adjacent south-eastern South Australia, preferring low mallee woodlands or shrublands with open canopy, above a moderately dense but patchy scrub layer. The male bird has an orange or buff face and throat, a grey breastband extending around the neck and over the head, and rufous underparts with pale yellow or olive edging to primaries. The female is similar but with a paler throat and underparts. While it is often seen perched in trees and shrubs, the red-lored whistler feeds, for the most part, on the ground. Little is known about the movement of this species, although it is thought to be sedentary, with some movement possibly after breeding. It builds a substantial, cup-shaped nest made mostly of coarse bark and mallee leaves, neatly woven around the rim in low shrubs and lays two or three eggs. The species's limited range has seen it listed nationally as a vulnerable species. This red-lored whistler was photographed in the Nombinnie Nature Reserve in New South Wales.Photograph credit: John Harrison

Some pages I watch that are vandalized at least occasionally: Radcliffe Line.

I took Radcliffe Line from a collection of uncited opinions to a readable, well-cited article that has even made it to the main page. It still needs work on details and citations. It does not attract a lot of scholarly interest despite that fact that the boundary has ongoing geo-political consequences and implications for foreign-policy.
