Hello. My name is 'Shèun.
I've been editing Wikipedia articles for more than a decade, but I only decided to make it official and join the herd a few months ago. My interests include genealogy, anthropology and history, and I'm strongest in the forms of each that pertain to my native Africa, but that having been said I nevertheless have a pretty extensive knowledge of those that pertain to other places as well. All of these are therefore among my principal areas of focus on Wikipedia.
I belong to a family that is part of the aristocracies of the Isinkan and Bonny traditional states of Nigeria, and which also claims descent from the Egba Alake chief Ogunmuyiwa Ologbonwon and from members of its Eso Ikoyi warrior caste. This means that I have more than a basic understanding of Africa's royal and noble traditions, and as a result I've been wrangling the pages about Nigerian traditional rulers, Ganwa, Abiru and the like for years now. I only recently contributed my first article that was constructed entirely by myself, however: Nigerian Chieftaincy.
I'm a male. I currently serve as a writer by profession, principally of film and television, and have received some training as a film/television producer in the past. I'm also a fan of film, television, the theatre, literature, architecture, music and food - not necessarily in that order.
I was born in Lady Thatcher's Britain, then went on to grow up in Southern Africa during the fall of Apartheid and Nigeria during the end of the rule of our military juntas. I have seen history up close as a result, and it has imbued me with an acute sense of knowing whenever it's afoot.
With the help of others here, I plan to continue to document the history and culture of my continent for posterity. It is my belief that in a world of short attention spans and instant gratification, to fail to do so would be an unconscionable crime. 👑
