I mostly contribute biographic articles. As a former Humanities student, I am interested in cross-cultural history events and people, Asian history ("what Genghis Khan brought together") and Buddhism, occasionally contributing bits into articles related to languages, writing systems, Leo Tolstoy, and things Russian.
Here is the list of 12-13th century figures I am interested in: historians Bar Hebraeus, Otto of Freising, Ibn Khaldun, emissaries and/or missionaries to the Mongol court (William of Rubruck, Giovanni da Pian del Carpini, Andrew of Longjumeau, Odoric of Pordenone, Giovanni de Marignolli, Giovanni di Monte Corvino, travelers such as Niccolò da Conti and later Marco Polo
Here is a list of 16th century figures I am interested in: James VI and I, Ben Jonson
My articles in English started in July 2008, with biographies of James Mavor (Canada-Russia) and Gombojab Tsybikov (Russia-Mongolia-Tibet). I had a feeling they were missing and initializing them might be useful for Wikipedia.
I am a rare contributor, only occasionally visiting the English wikipedia edition. My current activity is on English Wikisource. Recent Wikipedia articles I started were mostly meant to extend Wikisource author information.
