Latest Tasks Working on fleshing out the language pages of . So far Khmu language and Stieng language. Want to do Northern Khmer language next. I'm still trying to get Khmer language promoted to Wikipedia:Good article status. Just been being my typical Wikignome-ish self. Personal Info Location Stockton, California, USA Education University Graduate CSU Sacramento UC Santa Barbara Status Self-Employed Married, with Children Areas of Interest/Expertise Linguistics Southeast Asia Cambodia Khmer Language American Politics History of Scotland Christianity US History Christian History Christian Theology "To Do" list I spent a lot of time researching to rewrite Suwannaphum synchronizing and expanding all articles connected with Mon history, kingdoms, languages and culture (Mon state, Dvaravati, Thaton, Nyah Kur etc). Articles were either stubs and/or contradictory in facts, dates, names, etc. My ambitious plan is to, after improving these articles, link them to a main Mon article, (Mon people?) as daughter articles. All competent help is requested much appreciated. I also plan to work on the articles relating to the ancient history of the Khmers and their various kingdoms, linking and including information on the era and process of Indianization and synchronizing with articles like Kamboja, Kambojas and Kambodia, etc. I have been very busy recently writing articles relating to Clan MacThomas and their historical lands, battles and allegiances. Lots of research and time involved! I have been creating articles related to Free Will Baptists and their history and populating the new category. Also very time-consuming!

My favorite one: Under "to do" list, somebody inserted "Grow a sense of humor". It's more than a little ironic considering how funny I found that to be. Thanks to Jossi and Lar from whom I "stole" and modified these layout templates and Phaedriel who designed the originals.
