Hi, this isCrisco 1492; I operate onealternative account,Crisco 1492 mobile. I'd like to thank you for taking time to read my profile, and wish you success with any articles you write in the future.
Overview
I am a Canadian who studiedIndonesian literature inYogyakarta, Indonesia, from 2008 through 2019. I became aWikipedian on 20 June 2005. I started by making minor adjustments such as fixing typos and adding comments to the discussion pages of articles where I found things contrary to my understanding of Wiki-policy. Now I do a lot of work in page creation, especially articles related to Indonesia. I also participate in numerous places around Wikipedia, including AFD, FP, FA, FL, and GA.
On 26 October 2012 I became the seventh Wikipedian to earn aSteeplechase award, with five pieces of featured content (all related to Indonesia). On 1 December of the same year, an article I wrote,Frank's Cock, became what may be the first article to run in DYK after having reached featured article status. I am also current champion of the competition for the shortest DYK hook: ...?. See screenshot below:
I was mostly retired between 2018 and 2023. Since returning to editing, I have focused less on Indonesia topics; most articles have been related to republican China. I've also begun contributingphotographs of concerts andof dragshows. Those contain some of my favourites; I wish I were able to bring proper kit into venues!
About me
I was born inWindsor, Ontario, Canada on 15 March 1989. I graduated fromJ. L. Forster Secondary School in 2006. After graduation, I was one of theRotary Youth Exchange students from the Windsor district (6400 at the time). I hold a bachelor's degree in Indonesian literature fromSanata Dharma University (doing my undergraduate thesis on Sindhunata'sPutri Cina) and an M.A. fromGadjah Mada University (with my thesis on the adaptation of novels to films in the Dutch East Indies). I completed four years of a doctorate program, again at Gadjah Mada. I am now living in Canada, where I work for the government.

The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
Hi Chris, I've only just seen that you've gone. I know the feeling of being fed up and needing to get away, and I can only hope that you come back again at some point when you're ready for it. The place is much poorer without you, but I hope you are enjoying fatherhood in between the studying! Cheers -SchroCat (talk) 10:31, 9 October 2018 (UTC)

I love seeing all of the work you do on China-related articles! I've felt a little alone in the subject area and seeing someone else hard at work improving content in this field (especially in regards to late Qing and Republican stuff, my specialty) makes me so happy to see.Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 02:23, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

I feel like you must be 10 Chinese film scholars in a ridiculously tall trenchcoat with the insane amount of high-quality articles you've been creating on Chinese film history recently. Iwish I could operate at this level of productivity.
