From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am an undergraduate anthropology student in the state of California in the USA, but I have a good amount of self-education in history, theoretical politics, economics, husbandry and abstract art. I greatly admire Wikipedia's philosophy and how it spreads knowledge across the globe. With that said, I think I would be most helpful in furthering Wikipedia in the following areas:

  • Andean studies, as I have a strong interest in and a large amount of information about Andean Civilizations. I also see a dearth of information about them on Wikipedia, even compared with the Mesoamerican Civilizations, and I wish to help fix this.
  • Linguistics, especially semantics, writing systems and constructed languages but all areas as well
  • Various underutilized crops and neglected agricultural areas, such as New Guinea or West Africa.
  • Things related to the Sumerian Language, as I have a pretty good knowledge of the language and I see a lack of information on it compared with other Classical Languages (unrelated to unsolved issues in our knowledge of Sumerian), such as Latin or Sanskrit.
  • Ornamental fish species. I, an aquarist, would like to expand Wikipedia in this area as well; I wrote the article on the Gold Tetra, by the way.
  • I also have a strong desire to help counter ethnocentrism and promote a more perfectly worldwide view in Wikipedia in general, as I find that this is a rampant issue.

I am very happy to assist in any of these areas and will surely be greatly increasing my input into Wikipedia soon.
