I've passed 17,000 edits and am within the list of 6,000 with most edits to English Knowledge. I've lived in Korea for more than a decade and started editing in June 2010 when I saw an error and made an account to fix that error...then another...then another. My focus has shifted over the years, primarily going to where I feel there is the biggest need for Korean-related content as I am in a unique situation to contribute to that information within Knowledge. My early edits were focused on Korean cinema as I enjoyed it but found a lot of great movies and directors missing. I also found that hundreds of pages were missing the two standard Romanizations; basically the list was around 700 articles long and I brought it as close to zero as possible on multiple occasions. This forced me to learn the nuances of ใฑ vs ใฒ vs ใ
and it was a fun challenge.
With more interest in cinema and entertainers, and as I added as much hanja and Romanizations to as many pages as I could, the next field I focused on was transportation as I discovered the Seoul subway system was expanding but it was difficult to get information on these expansions. I knew nothing about transport except how to drive, so this was a fun way to stretch myself.
After a few years, the number of editors focusing on transport was growing and so I shifted to science as the Mythbusters renewed my interest. I learned about Sejong and Daejeon and the large number of research groups that exist in those cities and the lack of related content. Elon Musk commonly speaks about rocket science and EVs but also quantum physics on at least one occasion - and I knew nothing of these fields and over time grew in my interest towards them. Then people like the Everyday Astronaut and Scott Manley got me very interested in space science.
While Knowledge has a lot of great science contents, especially in physics, information about basic science and the scientists themselves is still lacking. This goes double for scientists in Asia, which can be seen in the lack of pages for award recipients. This is my next field of interest as I have the most room to grow and feel I can contribute the most once I start to learn these concepts. Just like everything else I did before this, I am starting as a complete noob and am eager to change that by learning as much as I can along the way.
Pages I want quick links to:
Category:Articles needing Korean script or text
Articles needing Hanja
Articles needing Romanized Korean Naming conventions, RR, MR, auto romanizer.
