- This editor approached us at the Wikimania Singapore event and we discussed how we need experts in humanities to contribute and assist with reviewing the backlogged submissions. He expressed an interest after seeing our poster at Wikimania. He led a team of researchers from China to investigate and publish research articles about Wikipedia. As such, his professional, publishing and open experiences are quite extensive. Since he primarily publishes in Chinese language, I suggested that he initially apply for associate editor position to familiarize himself with publishing and communicating in English to gain confidence in this area.

The Husayni Mourning in Iran Between the Safavid and Qajar Eras
editThe issue of Husayni rituals has always been among the most prominent and significant matters that all Iranian governments and authorities have endeavored to develop and encourage to be held in the best manner. This stems from the nature of the doctrinal belief (the Twelver Imami Shiite sect) upon which the political entity was founded since the Safavid era—a belief that has persisted through the eras of those states and continues to this day.
