Hi, I am a Graduate student working (I think I am) on my PhD in the middle of the vast, flat cornfields of the midwest. I am an active member of WikiProject Bangladesh and contribute on articles related to Bangladesh and South Asia.

My first edit to Wikipedia was on 14 March 2004. Then I was sporadically coming in and out of Wikipedia through 2004, because of my academic activities. I seriously started working on articles from 2005 and by August, 2005, reached more than 4000 edits. I became an admin on August 6, 2005. I also became an admin in the Bangla wikipedia on March 30, 2006.

I am originally from the beautiful South Asian country named Bangladesh. You can visit Bangladesh Portal to get more information on Bangladesh.

I also have accounts in the Bangla-wiki (bn:User:Ragib), commons (commons:User:Ragib), and meta-wiki (meta:User:Ragib). I am a Bureaucrat in the Bangla wikipedia.

My edit count

[edit] My interests

  • I am interested in working on articles related to South Asia, especially Bangladesh.
  • I am also interested in other historical articles about different regions.
  • I also like to remove POV, that is biased point of views/speculative judgement from articles in order to make them conform to Neutral Point of View.
  • Finally, I like to welcome new Wikipedians and help them contribute to the large collection of human knowledge in Wikipedia.

[edit] My Contributions

Note: I stopped updating the list, because it is taking too much of my user page. Perhaps I'll get time to update the list into another page sometime.

I have started the following articles:

[edit] Did You Know? entries

Several articles that I started appeared in the Did you know? section of the main page. Following is a list of the pages and the dates they appeared there:
