From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I was an early contributor to Wikipedia. At the time I was in high school and Wikipedia was just starting out, so there were a lot of low hanging fruit. Today there are fewer low hanging fruit. However, I have some expertise in Taiwan, so I have been creating Taiwan related pages where appropriate.


I have created the following pages:

I have made contributions to the following selected pages:

Projects

[edit]

These refer to areas which I think have significant room for improvement on Wikipedia.

Project: Taiwanese politicans. I am somewhat undertaking a project to improve pages on Taiwanese politicians. I've made edits to the following pages.

Project: Taiwan democracy movement.

Project: Taiwanese media. The top 3] periodicals in each category should probably be on Wikipedia.

  • Central News Agency (Taiwan) (seems to be a real dearth of information in English on this)
  • CommonWealth Magazine
  • Business Weekly
  • Business Today
  • various TV news/channels

Project: Taiwanese art. I plan to create or improve pages for the following artists, or at least monitor them to see if they meet notability.

  • New Taiwanese Song
  • Chen Da
  • Huang Fei (expand)
  • Dwagie (could be improved, sourced)
  • Hsieh Ming-yu (could be expanded)
  • YuYing Hsu (Discog: one album with Warner Music, probably not quite there yet)
  • 楊秀卿 (Taiwanese chantefable master, clearly notable as she's become representative of the art and spearheads efforts for its preservation)
  • Sangpuy (notable for winning Golden Melody Album of the Year)
  • Sorry Youth (article I think not quite there)
  • Ardor Huang (probably notable? very famous in Taiwan)
  • Wu He (舞鶴)
