Revision as of 14:26, 11 April 2012
I have two longstanding fields of interest: one is cultural theory and criticism, philosophy, and the humanities; the other is Chinese politics, religion, and history. I edit and hope to improve articles on both those subjects and more (I've taken a recent interest in finance, for example, and will edit along those lines for a while). Most of what I have encountered around here gives me reason to be optimistic about Misplaced Pages and my contributing peers. I commend everyone to the essay on being bold, and more importantly, the one on assuming good faith.

Notes
- Over time I have developed a bizarre grudge against gratuitous hyperlinking. I'll remove the brackets if they lead nowhere.
