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