Hey! I'm interested in countries, geography, science, and space. I refer to links to Wikipedia pages enclosed by [[ ]] as "bluelinks" (following the convention as redlinks), and I will edit the most minute grammar or clarity errors.

I believe that copyediting is an important and productive exercise for newer editors because incorrect spelling and grammar makes an article seem less authoritative, and vice versa. I like going down wiki rabbit holes to find things that could be corrected and learn more at the same time.

I'm a Recent Changes patroller and have been one accidentally for a few weeks now.

I am a native speaker of Hebrew, and as such enjoy translating articles from Hebrew Wikipedia into English. I have done this to 3 articles so far.

I have a ridiculous amount of userboxes, and have created quite a few myself, about topics like Soviet space dogs, hexagons, and terraforming planets.

• My userboxes
• My essays
• My sandboxes

Articles I created (excluding redirects, disambiguation pages, and surname lists):

• Han (robot) (I made it as an IP editor)
• Philip K. Dick Android
• List of NASA launch vehicles
• List of NASA field centers and launch sites
• Echo (Cirque du Soleil)
• Unexpected Cheddar (Trader Joe's)
• Airline trading cards

And my translations:

• Yuval Shem-tov (translated from Hebrew Wikipedia)
• Naftali Hertz Halevi (translated from Hebrew Wikipedia)
• Moshe Avigdor Amiel (translated from Hebrew Wikipedia)

I also contribute to Wikipedia:WikiProject Medicine/Vital Signs 2026 and WikiProject Judaism.
