Main areas of interest on Wikipedia include:
- Islamic architecture and/or historic architecture in the Middle East and North Africa, with particularly good knowledge of Islamic-era heritage of Egypt, Spain, Turkey, and the Magheb.
- History of the Middle East and North Africa, mostly history of the Islamic era (7th century and after)
