Hello and welcome to my userpage. My main contributions are on elections and referendums, largely focusing on countries outside the main anglosphere (as there are already enough editors covering those countries). I also do bits and pieces on political parties, politicians and football. As of early 2024, I had added around 7,700 articles to Wikipedia, of which around 3,700 are on elections or referendums, 1,400 on politicians, 1,100 on political parties, 720 on places, 300 on football, 300 on other politics, plus others on random topics like Eakabarere or Ulai Otobed. A more detailed breakdown of article types and the associated country is here.

I edit Wikipedia because I think everyone should be able to access the accumulated knowledge of humanity, and because I am interested in the topics themselves and enjoy the research and reading required to write the articles. I am very thankful for the existence of the British Library, in which I have probably spent thousands of hours, and should also note my thanks to Wikimedia UK, who provided me with a grant to purchase Elections in Europe: A data handbook, which allowed me to create or improve over a thousand articles.

As well as article creation, some of the more satisfying things I've managed to do on Wikipedia include:

  • Nice work fixing the Bosnia and Herzegovina page so that flag inside its Infobox national football team does not fall on the second line below the Bosnia and Herzegovina long name. This bugged me for ages, your fix made my day. I am sure many will notice and appreciate it. Many thanks. BiHVolim (talk) 13:12, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
