My current main Wikipedia-related interests are relativity and astronomy/astrophysics.
I'm managing scientist of the Haus der Astronomie (literally "House of Astronomy"), a center for astronomy education and outreach in Heidelberg, and senior outreach scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy. Previously, I worked for the Science Festival Foundation in New York, which is organizing the World Science Festival, an annual science festival in the city; in addition, I edit and develop Einstein Online (an outreach portal with information about Einstein's theories of relativity and related physics) for the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics. My main interest are, no surprise there, science-related articles.
