Welcome, I mostly edit around precolonial African history, but sometimes make the mistake of venturing into other topics.[a] Below is my to-do/procrastination list, please do my work for me (thanks).

For anyone interested in reading about African history I'd highly recommend the General History of Africa volumes. There's far too much to do and we desperately need more editors. Also feel free to join WP:WikiProject Anthropology/Oral tradition taskforce if it's something you're interested in; it didn't get off the ground but hopefully as the case for oral citations[b] gets stronger if/when TK enters the mainstream, something will be made of it. Some essays I wrote: Wikipedia:Colonial sources and Africa, Wikipedia:Efficiency, and Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines first. Happy to be pinged to disputes as a 3O. Let me know if I’ve done something wrong or can do something better, thanks.
