My name is Dan Hoyt. I have a Bachelors degree in English from the University of Kansas. I spend a great deal of time editing and looking at articles on Wikipedia.

Besides English I study two forms of martial arts. The first is Aikido and the second is Musō Jikiden Eishin-ryū Iaido. Because of my martial experience and knowledge I frequently read and edit articles on Japan, martial arts and samurai.

I also spend a great deal of time studying the Roman Empire and ancient Greek civilization. I enjoy playing Rome: Total War. Which may just be a computer game, but it inspires me to create and edit articles about the ancient factions represented in the game.

The last area I usually edit is on Slavic folklore and mythology. I took a course on this subject and I found it very interesting. I kept my books from the course and routinely check information on Wikipedia for accuracy.

This is a picture of me at Halloween. This is also how I dress to practice Iaido.
