Yo, trying to make a difference by sharing credible knowledge with the world. Thank you for visiting my page. Have a nice day.
Please feel free to mention if you would like to help with some articles here on talkpage or would like to discuss my edits.
Russian Authors
[edit]Rasul Hamzatov
[edit]- My Dagestan - I have reworked the article with information on other Wikipedias.

People in Turgenev's life
[edit]I think that some of these deserve articles of their own
- Varvara Zhitova
- She is mentioned in the Mumu (short story) article and Asya article.
- Polina (Pelageya) Turgeneva
- There is a photo of her (apparently) on Wikimedia but no article
Contributions to articles related to Hinduism
[edit]I have minor contributions to various articles related to Hinduism, mainly undoing the vandalism by Tamil nationalist info-terrorists.
However, I am also currently interested in the following topics:
- Vijñāna Bhairava Tantra#Practices
- The various practices can each have articles of their own
- Nyasa (ritual)
- Quite an important practice that is done before many rituals, but the article is a stub.
- Matrikas#Script characters
- I think this particular part deserves its own article, but published research seems very limited.
- Shiva Sutras
- This article can use some improvements
Other articles I might consider improving
[edit]- Asya
- Italian article on Asya mentions a comparision to Evgenij Onegin from Aleksandr Puškin. Might want to consider researching this and see if it can be mentioned.
- Sinzig, mentioned in the novella
- The german article has a lot of information that can be used to improve it.
- Leubsdorf, mentioned in the novella
- Codex on the Flight of Birds has some missing descriptions
Biography/Articles on people I have considered
[edit]- Miklos Csanyi, Hungarian director
- Directed a movie on Asya
Lesser known topics I feel deserve articles of their own
[edit]- Egyptian love poems
- That one early "anime" based on Kobutori Jisan (It's called a "Manga" in the video itself)
