My wikipedia editing has a tendency of spreading: I started with writing a dozen of full-length articles on materials science, then moved to other topics, mostly for the
DYK
project. These activities dragged me into reviewing articles (DYK,
WP:GAN
and occasionally
WP:FAC
) and eventually transformed me into a kind of
wikignome
– going around thousands of articles, cleaning up formatting and vandalism, adding references and figures, fixing typos and whatever caught my eye. As of 2014, most of my free time is taken by emergency matters like vandalism, though I still write short articles during calm hours.
Here are my
DYKs
and
barnstars
I enjoy finding good pictures for wikipedia (uploaded many thousands) and improving them with
GIMP
, thus I spend a significant part of my wikitime at
Wikimedia Commons
; I also draw crystal structures.
I use this username only on English Wikipedia,
Wikimedia Commons
, and very rarely on a few other related
Wikimedia Foundation
websites. Any user pretending otherwise is a blatant impostor (
example
).
