Current Status: It's my first edit day and nobody noticed. The community's no more - can I still contribute?

This user has asked for Wikipedians to give him feedback at an editor review. You may comment on his edits at Misplaced Pages:Editor review/Hildanknight.

This is just a temporary userpage. I'm working on a complete userpage, which will be presented like an article on myself, and be more thorough, with lots of userboxes. I think my complete userpage will probably be ready by the end of August. For now, I'll just leave a simple introduction about myself and my activities as a Wikipedian.

I'm Hildanknight, a.k.a. J.L.W.S. The Special One, a 15-year-old Singaporean Chinese boy. My friends consider me intelligent, humorous and ecccentric. My passions are computers, chess and writing. I'm also a huge fan of Jack Neo movies and Chelsea F.C.

I joined Misplaced Pages on 11 February 2006 with three main aims in mind:

1. To contribute information to articles on websites and Singapore TV shows/movies
2. To meet online friends with similar interests
3. To improve my English writing skills

The first article I wrote was GTalkr. My greatest contributions include writing the Google Groups and Homerun articles, and creating Requests for feedback, an initiative to help newcomers get feedback on articles they write.

When not writing articles or contributing information to articles, I am participating in discussions about Misplaced Pages processes, often on the village pump. I occasionally correct language errors and revert vandalism to articles on interest, although that's not my main activity.

I am currently looking for appropriate WikiProjects to join. WikiProjects will help me make Wikifriends with similar interests, so we can collaborate on articles on our interests. I'm a member of the Good Articles WikiProject and recently joined the Computer and video games WikiProject. I'm planning to join the Chess WikiProject. In addition, I'm trying to push for a Singapore WikiProject, although we could just move the SGpedians' notice board there. If you know any WikiProjects I would be interested in, or wish to tell me anything, please feel free to drop a message at my talk page. If you are particularly impressed with any of my contributions, please feel free to leave me a barnstar.

To-do list

Stubs

Writing articles is not easy. Therefore, I am considering expanding my horizons and engaging in a new activity: the mass creation of stubs of interest. Generally, such stubs are on specific fields in my areas of interest that I have familiarity but not expertise with. Such stubs are likely to be up to three paragraphs long, sometimes with an included picture.

Below is a list of stubs I wish to create if I decide to engage in the activity of mass creation of stubs. Please don't beat me to it unless you can start with something better than three paragraphs and a picture.
