My Goal in Wikipedia

My goal in editing articles in Wikipedia, is to learn. I mostly surf through already created articles and try to correct the information posted there and add something to it. I am afraid that becasue of the popularity of Wikipedia, its turning into a platform for politicaly motivated users,nationalist, and vandals. In my opinion, the success of Wikipedia depends in how well those elements are stopped.

My interestes are:

• Electronics
• Histroy of Islamic science
• Ancient and pre-modern Arab histroy

Articles that I created among others

Others

• Culture of Yemen

Noteworthy Contributions

• History of Yemen
• Al-Khayzuran - influential woman and mother of Harun al-Rashid.
• Azd - a famous Arab tribe.
• Jabir ibn Hayyan
• Al-Kindi
