At present, I keep my Wikipedia editing to a moderate level. I concentrate mostly on editing several articles on science. My choice is rather broad (fundamental and applied physics, climatology and even history) but that is simply because I have diverse scientific interests. Generally Wikipedia editing is a lot of fun, unless one meets an ineducable editor with strong but unsubstantiated opinions. Finding verifiable sources for obvious facts which are then nitpicked as "not good enough" by someone who has no scholarly sources at all to support his opinions is even more tedious than writing grant proposals ;-)
