I'm the former JET Programme CIR in Ikata, Ehime, Japan. I'll be updating and improving the Ikata page and other related pages (Iyo dialect, etc.).

Current projects

• Submitting pictures taken in the Ehime/Shikoku area (also Panoramio)
• Removing gratuitous "In pop culture" sections from articles (see User:Amake/Popculture for rationale)
• Cleaning up municipality articles on Honshū by adding geodata and updating merger info

Recent contributions

Ikata, Ehime is now a good article! My thanks to the editors who helped polish it up.

I'm tuning up articles on all current municipalities in Japan with the help of my bot. That means:

• Applying {{nihongo}} to titles (with full romanization)
• Macronizing Japanese words and names as appropriate (per WP:MOS-JA)
• Adding and correcting coordinate info with the help of my Google Maps script

This project is largely motivated by the prospect of having these articles show up in the Wikipedia layer in Google Earth.
