My Work

On enwiki

On top of writing new articles, I actively maintain the Index of Singapore-related articles and improving existing articles.

I do my best to be helpful to newcomers: being active at Articles for Creation, getting drafts reviews accepted, and answering questions as a mentor.

Other projects

I am active on Commons, sorting out the images in c:Category:Singapore.

You may see me processing username renames from time to time.

I do some translations from and to zhwiki as well.

I was part of the Wikimania 2023 Core Organising Team, as the tech lead.

I lead the Wikimedians of Singapore User Group. Let's congregate if you are in/from the country.

I am a Singaporean editor who writes mostly on Singapore topics. Having joined in 2006, I started contributing more regularly on English Wikipedia from 2019 onwards. From time to time, I may contribute on Chinese Wikipedia and Commons. To a lesser extent, I may do minor edits on other language projects, which languages I have some familiarity in.

I have revamped the Index of Singapore-related articles in 2019 and have been maintaining it ever since. Editors may use it to monitor for changes on Singapore related articles. Recognising that not everyone is technically inclined, I am in progress of making my script more accessible to the average editor.

In 2022, I became part of the Wikimania 2023's Core Organising Team, bringing the annual conference to Singapore and enabling the conference to be run in a hybrid format. The conference happened on 16-19 August 2023. During the conference, I had presented two talks during the conference, presenting some statistics on Singapore related articles and the community, and also on how to generate indexes with my script.
