Hello. I am mainly writing articles on Wikipedia pages. Because I was so active on Commons with my images and categorization, I eventually became an admin here too, which I was until September 2008, when I stepped down as admin and bureaucrat due to inactivity.

I like Commons becaues of its multi-ethnicity, something that I by nature feel close to. On Commons, I like to improve its communication and functionality, while always taking account of relevant laws and policies we have. I don't consider myself a copyright expert, but I do my best.
