Mr.

Junnn11 (@ni075) , an editor who works mainly on the Japanese version of Wikipedia and draws illustrations of various panarthropods, mainly extinct ancient creatures, is a hot topic on the overseas social site Hacker News . It is

Mr. Junnn11 is an editor from Malaysia who is mainly active in the Japanese version of Wikipedia, and on his user page , he writes, 'I am a foreign amateur arthropod enthusiast. I mainly edit arthropod- related items. We will add information that is not translated into Japanese, update knowledge, and correct incorrect information.' His native language is Mandarin Chinese, and he is studying Japanese on his own, but he is very fluent in Japanese on Twitter.



Junnn11's work as a Wikipedia editor stands out for his illustrations of a wide variety of ancient creatures that are already extinct. Since there are no photographs of ancient creatures found only in fossils, it is difficult to imagine what modern humans were like when they lived, but illustrations based on fossils help deepen understanding.

Looking at the Wikipedia user page, modern humans such as Cheronieron , who lived in the Devonian period about 400 million years ago, Haveria , who lived in the Cambrian period, about 500 million years ago, and Kirinsia, who lived in the Cambrian period. There are many illustrations of animals that are unfamiliar to you.



There is also an illustration of

Opabinia , whose name appeared in Makoto Shinkai's movie ' 5 Centimeters Per Second '.



There was also an illustration of

Anomalocaris , which is especially famous among the creatures that lived in the Cambrian period. Mr. Junnn11's illustrations have cuteness with smooth curves and crisp eyes, and you can feel familiarity with ancient creatures.



I also work on illustrations and GIF animations that show the structure of jointed limbs and segments of arthropods, and how joints move. Junnn11's illustrations are posted not only on the Japanese version of Wikipedia, but also on many English versions of Wikipedia.



When Mr. Junnn11 was introduced on the social news site Hacker News on April 20, 2023, many people commented admiringly. One user wrote, 'Great illustration! I'm in awe every time I see people putting so much effort into a specific, very niche area. Why did you get interested in that subject?' Why did you choose this theme? How do you maintain your motivation?' 'I

want to be passionate about something like Mr. Junnn11 is obsessed with arthropods.' I'm here.



Another user pointed out

an animation created by Junnn11 that explains the movement of arthropods , and said that he can see why enthusiasts are crazy about arthropods.



Junnn11 is also active in the artist's online community deviantART , where he also posts illustrations of anthropomorphic arthropods.
