I come here occasionally.
- Update: I came around more often than I originally anticipated.
I try my best to improve articles and add sources where need be. It's not easy (the fact that most of the sources I use are Japanese-language and Google Translate doesn't do that great of a job makes it a lot harder), but it's definitely worth it.
I've been formally editing wikis since around 2015, even though I've been reading them since 2011.
I've also been assessing several WikiProject Trains in Japan articles recently, albeit too optimistically. Many of them, in my opinion, were either rated inaccurately or haven't been assessed for a lengthy period of time and now poorly reflect the article's current state.
Occasionally I'll patrol recent changes, often looking for vandalizing, unsourced, or otherwise non-constructive edits that go against the purpose of Wikipedia.
