Speciality

[edit]
  • Mainly trying to work on China related Korean War topics...my grandfather suffered horribly during the War, Chinese veterans' stories need to be told without interferences from politics and ideology.
  • If I have time, I'll drop into China related hacker topics...interesting underground culture to study, since it is composed of independent nationalistic groups that works both for and against the Chinese government.
  • Don't expect me to get involved into the politics behind the articles I'm working on...I don't take sides, I just report what I have confirmed.

To Do List:

Honorable Mention

[edit]
The Ürümqi Barn"star"
Thanks for all your work maintaining the article July 2009 Ürümqi riots during its time on the main page. This has been a difficult and thankless task, working at a frenetic pace for 4 days straight so far (I, for one, have been getting very little sleep), and it's only been thanks to coordinated efforts and discussion from numerous editors that the article has been kept as neutral and informative as possible. This is the most collaboration I've done, with the largest number of editors at once, since I have joined Wikipedia, and I think the results are showing; while it's not perfect, when my friends and family ask me about what's going on in Urumqi, I have been more comfortable recommending this article than any other source. The work is far from over, but now that this article is off the main page I think it's finally time to thank the editors Seb az86556, Colipon, Jim101, Ohconfucius, Benlisquare, Simonm223, and Jinhuili for all their contributions; while we had disagreements, I think each of these editors has been particularly active and has made real efforts to improve the article.rʨanaɢ talk/contribs 20:07, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
