Hello, I'm a student at Georgetown University and an amateur editor at Wikipedia. I've always found Wikipedia very convenient and I want to improve the many articles found here to help other people know this information.

In the past, I've mostly focused on contributing to history-related articles (particularly world history), and the Post-classical history article has been a sort of pet project of mine. Recently though, I've been expanding my contributions to other projects, such as video games.

To-Do List

Postclassical Era

To-Do List for Postclassical Era

Expansion is heavily needed in the Africa, South and Southeast Asia, Japan, Korea, Central Asia, and End of Period sections.
- Italy needs to be described in greater detail in the Western Europe section (i.e. Kingdom of the Lombards, etc.)
- Spain's transition from Reconquista to the Spanish Empire needs to be better detailed.
- Eastern Europe is still lacking; needs to better describe the Byzantine Empire, Slavs, Bulgarian Empires, and early Russia.
The Americas, Korea, South and Southeast Asia, and End of Period sections lack any citations.
- Western Europe section still needs more inline citations
A greater variety of references is still needed
- East Asia sections especially need more different citations
A cultural section may need to be created

Age of Revolution

To-Do List for Age of Revolution

Organize
- Outline sections
- Set up references (add resources)
- Establish format for article
Start expansion with minor summaries in each section
Set up for peer review to analyze for further improvement/expansion
