About Me
[edit ]My first contributions to Wikipedia was in 2018. I started out by making small contributions and doing clean-ups to improve the readability of articles. Over time, I began regularly contributing to local area articles. I stopped contributing for a couple years after this to pursue higher education. I resumed editing on Wikipedia in around 2022 on a more frequent basis. However, I work full-time and editing Wikipedia is a hobby for me. I only make contributions when I have the time and when it is something that is enjoyable for me.
Real-life interests
[edit ]I have a wide range of interests in my real life, and I always enjoy learning new skills and picking up new hobbies. Some of my current interests/hobbies right now are:
- Musical theatre: I go to the theatre often, especially in the Toronto area
- Movies: Although I don't necessarily watch a lot of movies, I do enjoy them. I watch nearly any genre of movie, but my favourites are horror and comedy
- Movies seen in 2024: Argylle , Kung Fu Panda 4 , Abigail , Inside Out 2 , Deadpool & Wolverine , Speak No Evil , Moana 2
- Baseball, especially the Toronto Blue Jays
- Basketball, especially the Toronto Raptors
- History, especially Canadian history, World War I and II, Cold War
- Environmental science
My Contributions
[edit ]My main focus at the moment is improving the presence and quality of Wikipedia pages related to Canadian musical theatre artists, companies, and shows. While the United States and England have a strong representation in this area, I believe Canada is underrepresented. There are many Canadian artists and theatre companies who meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines who merit inclusion, and I aim to help close this gap. In addition, I am a member of WikiProject Musical Theatre , and am open to helping expand and/or improve the quality of any musical theatre article from around the world.
I am also a member of WikiProject Canada . I am generally happy to help contribute to any Canada-related article, especially relating to current events, arts, culture, and history.
