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.

I am not very active on the Norwegian Wikipedias (Bokmål and Nynorsk). So far my only real contribution is the article Arkadia - reisen til jordas indre and associated images.

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 "maintenance work" than actual contributions, mostly helping out with various projects such as fixing links, organising stub types, categorising articles and such.

As of 26 August 2005 my edit count is over 1600, of which over 1000 are in article space (mostly minor edits). You can get an acurate count, or check your own here.

Ongoing projects

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

Working on moving articles from Category:Science fiction writers to the relevant subcategories under Category:Science fiction writers by nationality. Using only existing subcats for now, once I'm done I'll see if there are enough leftovers to create additional subcats for more nationalities. Current progres: A-E done.

Fixing red links in articles, based on the lists generated by the Red Link Recovery project. This project is currently "finished". All lists have been processed, I expect new ones will be generated shortly.

 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. So far I have created two new sub-stubs: &#123;{[[Template:US-writer-stub|US-writer-stub]]}} and &#123;{[[Template:UK-writer-stub|UK-writer-stub]]}}, by far most writers seem to go into either of those two at the moment. &#123;{[[Template:Canada-writer-stub|Canada-writer-stub]]}} and &#123;{[[Template:France-writer-stub|France-writer-stub]]}} have since been creater by another editor, and I've been helping populate those as well and other sub-stubs are currently beeing debated at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals]]<br />Current progres: '''A-G + R''' done (baring new arivals).<br />See also: [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting]]<br style="clear:both;" />
 *Working on moving articles from [[:Category:Science fiction writers]] to the relevant subcategories under [[:Category:Science fiction writers by nationality]]. Using only existing subcats for now, once I'm done I'll see if there are enough leftovers to create additional subcats for more nationalities. Current progres: '''A-E''' done.
