Hi! I'm WhinyTheYounger, a user who chose his username before realizing 'whiny' and 'Pliny' don't actually rhyme (Classics was never one of my better subjects). A core interest of mine is Greater China, broadly construed, particularly language, foreign affairs, comparative politics, but I find myself editing a wide range of articles primarily in the humanities and social sciences, as well as medicine, to a lesser degree.
I am also interested in conflict-of-interest and undisclosed paid editing issues. Relatedly, I try to focus on the edit request backlog from time to time.
Potential COI/WP:SPIP/Neutrality/Promotion issues: Anita Dunn • Randall Lane (journalist) • Daniel Horowitz • BGR Group • Lee Edwards • Manhattan Institute • Francesco Sisci • Keith Dowding • Richard D. Lewis • Roger Kimball • Aaron Friedberg • Michael Sayman • Peter Breggin(Note to self: make article for Amy Glasmeier, Land O' Lakes Statement, and Joseph Stokes, Jr.)
Bolded articles were created by me. Generally, I count as "major" anything I spent at least an hour or two researching and writing.
Non-greater China stuff:
St. Laurent, Manitoba (Baby's first substantive edits!) — Declawing of crabs —Lysol — Gelatin — French protectorate of Tunisia — Human hair color — Death of Adama Traoré — George Floyd protests in Washington, D.C. — John Bunn (exonerated prisoner) — Swiss Statement — Election day — Pocari Sweat — Tim Guldimann — Casey Frey — Senate of Lesotho — Republican Attorneys General Association — Matthew Daniels — Alaskapox virus
Greater China-related stuff:
HIV/AIDS in China — Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China — Mao Gong ding — Project 2049 Institute — China–North Korea relations — ROKS Cheonan sinking — Chinese language romanization in Taiwan — Clear waters and green mountains — Burkina Faso–Taiwan relations
— People's Daily — Zou Jiayi — Guo Yuhua — The Paper (Chinese newspaper) — Civil service of the People's Republic of China — Cadre system of the Communist Party of China — Xiang Lanxin — Hebei Pangzai — Li Jiaqi (beauty influencer)
Cleanup of non-neutral, promotional, and/or corporate-sponsored content:
- Discovered and ameliorated the extensive network of paid editing surrounding Ian Bremmer and his company, Eurasia Group.
- Darren Grimes • Robert Pape • Keyu Jin • Albright Stonebridge Group • Martin Jacques • Foreign Policy Research Institute • Canadian Securities Course (redirected) • Mark Anchor Albert • Teneo • Nury Vittachi • Doug Guthrie • A. Wess Mitchell • William R. Hawkins • Fairfax University of America • John Whitmire
