About me
[edit]I am an overseas Chinese born and raised in Singapore, a Southeast Asian island country. I have Cantonese and Hakka ancestry – my paternal ancestral home is in Guangdong while my maternal ancestors were Hakka Chinese Indonesians from Sumatra. My native languages are English and Mandarin. I speak some Cantonese, Hokkien, Japanese and Korean as well.
I first joined Wikipedia in 2005 when I was in high school and have been editing more frequently since 2008. I semi-retired from Wikipedia in early 2014 but decided to come out of retirement in mid 2017. The userboxes on this page help me speak other things about myself that I wish to reveal.
About using Wikipedia
[edit]I enjoy using Wikipedia as a source of knowledge even though its reliability is questionable and that it exhibits strong systemic bias. Editing Wikipedia has been one of my hobbies since I committed myself to the WikiProjects I am involved in. I semi-retired from Wikipedia in early 2014 but still return to editing from time to time.
Contributions and interests
[edit]I contribute mainly on the English Wikipedia and occasionally on the Chinese Wikipedia. I have also translated articles from Chinese to English. My topics of interest include history, literature, law, politics, religion, philosophy, East Asian cinema and television, and science fiction.
You can check out a more detailed but incomplete list of my contributions, my contributions to DYK, and the awards I have received from other Wikipedians.
