Editor of the Week
I'm Thebiguglyalien (he/him), but I also answer to TBUA, BUA, and Alien. I'm a lifelong resident of Arizona, and I have a bachelor's degree in political science. I created my account in 2015, my first edit was in 2017, and I became a regular contributor in February 2022.
Most of my contributions involve content writing, often overhauling unloved articles to get them to good article status. I also engage in review work from time to time. You might see me around Women in Green, Good Article Nominations, or any one of the brief interests I pursue before moving on to something else.
I edit in several areas, but my main focuses are history and political science. I also edit extensively about Botswana, because I believe systemic bias is best fought with deep coverage rather than wide but shallow coverage. If you are reading this, I challenge you to pick an underrepresented country and write everything you can about it.
I do GAN reviews on request, but only if it's about a country where I've never done a review before (see the last column in my articles per country) and if your review/nomination ratio is greater than one.
Any allegations that I'm an alien from Mars bent on intergalactic conquest are entirely baseless and unfounded.
