Welcome!
I am a long time Wikipedia reader who has generally only made minor corrections to articles. An attempt to step up my interaction with WP led me to create my account, which is named after a neighborhood in
Mumbai that I used to live in. My watchlist is still pretty bare, I mostly only look after the pages of academic institutions that I have attended, but find myself looking up all manner of articles on Wikipedia from
current events to
history and
technology to
popular culture.
I suppose I may be categorized as a
Wikignome. Although I have contributed frequently over the years I do not take part in any Wikiprojects and I haven't started any new pages myself. I will often make minor spelling, punctuation or formatting corrections to articles that I come across through my web browsing, and my watchlist largely consists of subjects that connect to my life, from the various educational institutions that I have attended like
Marin Academy to places where I have lived like
San Francisco and New York City's
East Village. Beyond that, I generally find myself reading and editing articles related to
media,
internet culture and
technology, as well as a smattering of
history and
philosophy, but really anything and everything. After living abroad for several years, I've been following more articles related to
Indian culture and
business,
London neighborhoods,
European history and various bits of
esoteric knowledge. I also shamelessly compile interesting images that I find on Wikipedia into a screen saver and have just signed up for the email service of the
Featured Article of the day.
