Template:Babel-6 Hi, I don't have a lot to say about me rely. I was born in 1978, I'm from Sokndal, a small municipality in the county of Rogaland in Norway.

Most of my contributions are in areas of science fiction, fantasy and things computer related, seeng as those are my main interests. I also find science and history interesting, but I'm more of a reader than a contributor in those areas.

Lately I seem to have drifted more into "maintainance work" than actual contributions, mostly helping out with various projects such as fixing links, organising stub types, categorising articles and such.

Ongoing projects

Currently I divide most of my time here between these projects:

Working on (slowly) sub-dividing the bloated Category:Writer stubs by nationality, also applying relevant categories as I go.
(Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting)
Fixing links that point to the disambiguation page Norwegian, to make them point to the relevant page directly (for example Norwegian people, Norwegian language, Norway, Norwegian-American etc.). This seems to be an ongoing project as new links are added all the time.
(Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links)
Fixing red links in articles, based on the lists generated by the Red Link Recovery project.
(Wikipedia:WikiProject Red Link Recovery)

Usefull/helpfull pages in no particular order

Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types: Use the most apropriate stub tag when possible.
Wikipedia:Image copyright tags / Wikipedia:Template messages/Image namespace: How to tag images you upload.
Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not: Stuff you should not add/include in the wikipedia.
Wikipedia:Avoiding common mistakes: Things to avoid.
Wikipedia:Naming conventions: How to properly name your articles.

A lot of red links are caused by typos or incoredt capitalisation or punctuation, this project feature lists of existing articles that clostly match red links, often changing the case of a letter or two in the link can turn it into a valid link to an existing article!
