My interests on Wikipedia include anything from international relations to astronomy to video games. As a detail-oriented editor, I identify as a WikiGnome. As such, most of my edits are typo fixes, grammatical improvements, bolding main subjects and abbreviations, citations, Wikilinks, disambiguation pages, redirects, and category pages. In my view, improving the little details helps improve the bigger picture overall. On occasion, I do create articles of my own and make effort to substantially improve stubs (see projects below).
